SIBLINGS Christian and Natalia Mitchell, from Woodstock, both won double gold on a successful weekend for Oxfordshire youngsters.

Christian Mitchell and his partner Toby Leung (Devon) landed the boys double title at the Lilleshall under 13 gold tournament.

After defeating the Swedish No 1 Tom Soderstrom and Chad Warren 21-16, 21-19 in the semi-final, they went on to beat England players Akhil Pillai and Alex Green 21-17, 21-11.

Christian also won the mixed doubles with Keira Henry (Warwickshire) by beating another England player Neil Babhuta and Safia Khimji (Oxfordshire) 21-19, 21-11 in the semi and England players Alex Green and Asmita Chaudhari 21-17, 21-12 in the final.

Khimji also won a bronze in the mixed doubles.

Meanwhile, Natalia Mitchell won a bronze in singles event at the Worcester under 15 silver tournament, but her glory came when she took both the doubles titles.

In the girls doubles, Mitchell and May Burke (Warwickshire) land the title by winning all three of their matches in straight games.

In the mixed competition, Mitchell was indebted to a heroic performance from Jamie Cackett (Abingdon), who was injured in their second match, but played four more contests, including a thrilling final.
