Joel Makin has rounded off a successful year by becoming top junior squash player in Wales. The talented 18 year-old, from Aberdare, now has his sights on European titles in 2013.
His elevation follows success in the Welsh National Squash Championships at under 19 and under 23, his second major national title win this year. In August he became the first-ever Welsh national men’s racketball champion.
Already 12th in the top European rankings in his age group, he is now on target for Welsh team selection at the European junior championships in Switzerland in March and the world juniors in Poland next July.
