Abbie Milwain (Chellaston Senior School and Draycott Club) was the only Derby League player in the National

 Trials held at Moorways at the weekend.  The East Midlands Regional Trials were held in November 2007 and

 Abbie won a place to go to the next stage - the national trials.  These are played in groups of 8 and are used by

 the ETTA for talent spotting of junior players.  Abbie played at Under 15 level and just missed out for a place

in the final rounds. She played Anna Donohue (Barrow in Furness) for second place in the group with both

 players having notched up 5 wins.  The top player in the group Rebekah March (Essex) had already gone

 through with 7 wins.  Abbie lost this critical match 10-12 in the 4th.
