St Lucia was represented by a team of four athletes namely Anaiah Bousquet, Denney Estava, McCarvy Cyril and Alhil Cyril at the recently concluded Tobago Carnival Cup at the National Racket Centre in Tacarigua, Trinidad from 12th-19th August. The team's performance was exceptional with all players claiming COTECC points to start their climb up the ranking ladder. 

McCarvy Cyril was the only athlete to make the main draw as he won three of his four round robin matches, this was a great achievement for him. Denney Estava and Alhil Cyril both won two of their five round robin matches  played.  They competed in the consolation draw both advancing as far as the semi-final, but Cyril advanced further as he claimed the U14 Consolation boys title in the final.
