After the Under-11 tournament held as part of the celebrations for the 34th anniversary of our Republic, our federation also held the Under-13 tournament.
The Under-13 TRNC Championship was held on Monday 13 November 2017. Open to athletes born between 2005 and 2008, the tournament attracted strong interest. Matches began with an opening ceremony at 16.00 and ended with an award ceremony at 20.00. A total of 36 closely fought matches were played across 5 categories. In thrilling singles finals, Hazan Ali Akhisar of the University of Kyrenia won the boys' title and Sevimnaz Çiftlikağası of Near East University the girls' title. Melissa Beyaz and Naz Düzgün won the women's doubles and Hüseyin Şahali and Baran Noroğlu the men's doubles without losing a match. Nehir M. Deniz and Salih Doğu Öztürk won the mixed doubles, also beating all their opponents. On points, Near East University won the team title, with the University of Kyrenia second, Net Spor Club third and Kültür Spor Club fourth. Speaking before the award ceremony, Federation President Fırat Deniz thanked all the athletes for their outstanding performance despite their young age, the coaches who trained them and the referees who officiated throughout the championship. He also thanked the parents and fans who followed the matches until the last match despite the late hour, saying that every child who took part was a champion and that the real winner was Turkish Cypriot badminton. The federation also gave Republic Day T-shirts to all the participants.
