Egyptian players dominate the British Junior Squash Championships with the nation assured of eight titles. The African nation contributed 17 of the 20 finalists in Birmingham.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
The only final tie that will not feature an Egyptian player at the championships will be the girls Under-19 competition.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
That final will feature Lauren Baltayan of France and Anahat Singh of India. Both player defeated Egyptian rivals in their semi-final tie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Lauren defeated Sohayla Hazem 11-6, 11-8, 11-8 in 34-minutes while Anahat was equally impressive in defeating Malika El Karaksy 11-8, 11-7, 11-9 in 29-minutes.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Hong Kong\u2019s Ngo San Leung was the other player to gate-crash the Egyptian party. San Leung defeated American Azlan Khan 11-3, 11-9, 11-7 in the boys Under-11 sem-final tie.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
He will play Hazem Mahmoud El Fadly of Egypt, who gunned down teammate Selim Elnahas 11-8, 11-2, 11-6 in his semi-final.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
All other finals to be played later today will be all-Egyptian clashes, highlighting the African nations depth in the sports that have been dominating at both junior and senior levels in recent years.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Boys Under-19 top seed Adam Hawal got through in straight games against USA\u2019s Christian Capella and next plays close friend Seif\u00a0Refaay, who was an exemplary straight-games winner over France\u2019s Amir Khaled-Jousselin. It will be a repeat of last year\u2019s BU17 final between the Egyptian pair.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
In the girls U-17, England\u2019s sole semi-finalist Mariam Eissa was well positioned at 8-4 up in the third against top seed\u00a0Habia\u00a0Rizk, with the first two games shared. However, the Egyptian clawed her way back, helped in part by a crucial overturned stroke decision.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Rizk, who is only 15 and has titles under her belt already at U13 and U15 level, completed 11-7, 4-11, 13-11, 11-4 victory to set up a final against compatriot Mariam El\u00a0Mattet, who overcame USA\u2019s second seed Isabella Tang in three.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Boys Under-17 top seed Farouk Mohamed was extended to four games by USA\u2019s Brendan Tagliarini while his Egyptian compatriot Philopater Saleh came through in three against Indian second seed Aryaveer Dewan.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Top seed Hassan\u00a0Abdelgalil\u00a0cruised into a boys U-15 final against second-seeded compatriot Aly Abdel-Fattah by virtue of\u00a0an 11-2, 14-12, 16-14 triumph over Baraa Abdelkarim. Abdel-Fattah\u2019s win in the other semi was a classic \u2013 11-6, 6-11, 12-10, 4-11, 14-12 against Aly\u00a0Teleb.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Title\u00a0favourite\u00a0Layan Moustafa and Reem\u00a0Elmaghraby\u00a0will contest the girls U-15 final after the Egyptian pair defeated Sandy Hassan in three and USA\u2019s Vivienne Sze in\u00a0four\u00a0respectively.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
Egyptian twin sisters Alia and Karma\u00a0Elnazer\u00a0met in the semi-finals of the girls U-11 with second-seeded Alia coming out on top by a marathon 11-9, 8-11, 2-11, 11-9, 13-11 scoreline. The other semi, also an all-Egyptian affair, also went the distance with Malika Ghonim toppling top seed Talia Eslam 6-11, 11-9, 4-11, 14-12, 13-11.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n\n\n
