The second racket is Jessica Eudovic, a highly competitive athlete who has represented St. Lucia at the Junior Billie Jean King Cup Competition twice. She also competed in the JITIC Competition. Jessica is passionate about tennis and has long anticipated this opportunity to compete at this prestigious level.


Iyana Paul, the third racket, has been representing St. Lucia since she was 10 years old. She has been meticulously prepared for this level of competition and is excited about the challenge ahead.


The team is set to compete from August 3rd to 8th at the National Racket Center in Trinidad and Tobago. The St. Lucia Tennis Association extends heartfelt thanks to the sponsors: the National Lotteries Authority, the St. Lucia Olympic Committee, and the Oliver Gobat Sports Fund, for their unwavering support.
