Braintree badminton players Tyler Rolfe and Mike Meepanya teamed up to enjoy a convincing victory at the Essex County Badminton Association level one under-14s tournament at Charter Hall in Colchester.

Rolfe, who is a year eight pupil at the Alec Hunter Academy in Braintree, and Meepanya, who is in year nine at Notley High School, dominated the event in both the singles and doubles.

The duo, who both play for the Braintree-based LBC Badminton Club, made it through to the singles final where, after three hard-fought games, Rolfe emerged victorious, before they went on to play in the doubles together which they won convincingly.
