I AM a 10-year-old tennis player. In the recently-held Saeed Hai Open Tennis Tournament, the Under-11 category was excluded and upcoming Subhenau local tournament has also not been included in this category.

I am sad and disappointed to see the elimination of Under-11 category from tennis tournaments.

I would like to request members of the Sindh Tennis Association and the Pakistan Tennis Federation that they should include the Under-11 category. People say: “We want talent to rise in the country.” But how will it rise if you won’t let young guns play and compete?
