In the girls' division of the event, which is the premier tennis competition for under 16s Shoalhaven athletes, Parri Barrele defeated Hannah Phillips 6-4 6-2 in the decider.
Malia Barrele won the third-place playoff against Olivia Matthews (6-2 6-3), as Sarah Roberts ousted Olivia Healy (6-2 6-1) for fifth - with Alicia Healy ending up in seventh.
While the boys' section, Christian Muller was crowned the champion after defeating Zac Muller in the final 6-2 6-1.
Josh Miller finished third, after edging Oscar Goley 6-2 6-3 in a playoff, while Harrison Baxter pipped Baden Manwarring (6-2 6-1) for fifth - with Ryan Balfour and Jack Hay finishing seventh and eighth respectively.
All of the athletes received prize money on the day, which will go to future tennis expenses.
