BRADFORD schoolboy Abraham Sellado is the new Under-13 boys National Schools' Table Tennis champion.
A magnificent performance from the second seed saw him defeat third seed Max Radiven 3-0 (11-4, 11-7, 11-6) to win the title in Wolverhampton last weekend, with bronze medals going to Vel Rumkumar and Rex Wong.
Sellado, from Fairweather Green, who recently became the youngest men’s champion in the history of the Halifax League, dropped only one set in the competition.
He told the Table Tennis England website: “It’s great, I worked hard all year so it feels good my efforts have paid off.
“I used the Halifax tournament for experience and it helped me in the pressure moments in this tournament.”
