Four Berkhamsted Prep girls competed. They all reached the main draw and played with great spirit and determination.  The event involved 36 independent schools and took place over three days.

A sterling sporting year has now seen Berkhamsted Prep named as National Champions in Tennis & Fives and national finalists in Swimming, Football, Netball and Equestrian.

Earlier in the week, the Senior Girls team travelled to Nottingham to compete in their first tennis National Finals. The girls performed strongly and earned a top 10 finish.
