"The Ulster Junior Open is one of the five Irish ranking events, attracting all of the top Irish players, making Nicole's achievement very special," said coach Sue Harper.
The Irish girls offer one of the toughest challenges in junior girls table tennis having dominated the schools' championships in recent years - both as a team and individually.
Nicole's achievement this weekend come's on the back of Junior Open success here in England, with Nicole winning U11s and U13s tournaments in September.
Nicole is one of two up-and-coming junior table tennis stars in the Scott family: elder sister, fourteen year-old Rachael was also in action in the Ulster Junior Open, finishing runner up in two of the tournaments banded events: the U15s band one and U18s band two.
Rachael's success topped a great weekend and a great start to the season for the Scott sisters.
