Hi Ben,

Wow, well done on making the team.

I once played the New Zealand Open Junior tournament in 1981… I think in Napier.

I think the focus for you needs to be just on working hard between now and then.  During the tournament, the most important thing is relaxing and allowing yourself to play your game naturally.  Focus on each point as it comes up.

If you start thinking about letting other people down your focus immediately goes away from the ball and the next point.  Enjoy the experience and learn as much as you can and you won’t let anyone down.
