The EJCOA National Youth Championships were held in Nottingham in July 2025. Held from 11th–13th July 2025 at the elegant Nottingham High School, the event brought together close to 200 junior players, representing more than 40 regional qualifiers from across England. It was a fitting venue for the EJCOA’s flagship event: a historic hall filled with natural light, dozens of neatly arranged boards, and the hum of excitement as parents, players, and coaches gathered under one roof.
