Some pictures of the 29th Smrikva Bowl 2024 actors... taken during the Sixth and Final day of their Smrikva Bowl... the AWARDING day... the cake and swimming pool day :)

Smrikva Bowl finals are played since 1996 with linesman and ball kids… it was a nice morning with the sky ready for the finals…

… the stage was prepared early in the morning…

… the trophies and diamond medals were ready too…

… and some seeds of the future dreams were planted…

At 8:30 AM everything was ready for the final act of this year 29th Smrikva Bowl 2024 Opera stage… the central court was ready :)

When I think of Smrikva Bowl I try to imagine it as a theater where every year we work hard to set a stage where the world’s talents can gather… Every year we gather all these different actors, great talents, very special kids, arriving from different cultures, having different dreams,…

We set the stage and later on they are in charge with their will, dreams and hard work… they are the ones who write the most different stories…

The Finals and Awarding ceremony day of the 29th annual started with traditional Staff and Ball Kids gathering…

and here are 12 ball kids out over 70 Staff Members who behind the curtains directed the Opera to make our actors perform at their best…

Tia, Serena, Monika, Juraj, Ethan, Ariel, Tim, Edgar, Marta, Celine, Mikael & Zoe… were this year with us in the finals ball kids team…

Damir and Tamara made the final instructions to our this year Staff seeds…

and here we are all together ready to jump into another wonderful finals…

… over 140 invisible hands that make MORE THEN TENNIS a reality for a week… year after year…

The girls finals are per tradition scheduled at 9:00 AM and it always start with flower pictures of the finalists…

… and here are Mathilde Hartvingsen Dianati from Denmark and Sofia Brigatti from Italy making their photo session before the finals…

…and this year Consolation Draw actors were: Andrea Nour from Moldova and Manuela Sumelj from Croatia. The Chair Umpire Bruno Sampras was in charge for the Consolation finals…

… and today Andrea was able to win the Consolation Draw finals match…

Mathilde Hartvingsen Dianati crowned herself the 29th Smrikva Bowl 2024 edition winner… her brother Philip made it two years ago till the semifinals… and the sister was able to climb few more stairs this time…

I am sure this is only one of the first meetings for the most Smrikva kids and there will be many matches in the future for most of them… and many opportunities to measure their skills development…

… after the girls exhibition of their skills it was the time of boys…

… and after girls Consolation finals at the court #2 the boys Consolation finals started… between Ruan Stefan Coman from Romania and David Richter from Austria…
