World number three and top seed Reid was prolific in his all-British men's singles final against 16-year-old Alife Hewett dropping just three games to seal the title 6-2 6-1.

The match was a repeat of the final from the International Tennis Federation (ITF) two Series North East Tournament in Sunderland in 2013 where Reid also came out on top against the world number one junior.

"I'm delighted to win today, it was a high quality match and Alfie is an up and coming player and improving all the time," said Reid.

"I tried out a few different things this week and some worked and some didn't, but I played well at the right times, so it's a good way to go enter a training block ahead of going to the United States next month."

Burdekin claimed back-to-back quad singles titles as he followed up his victory at the North West Challenge last week with a 6-2, 6-0 win over fellow Briton Adam Field.

Field made a bright start after reaching the final following a victory over Italian fourth seed Antonio Raffaele earlier in the week, but Burdekin came from 2-0 down to win 12 games in a row and seal the victory.

"I'm very happy to win both titles in the North West," said Burdekin.

"It was a bit of a slow start for me today, but I'm really pleased to reel off the last 12 games and it's onwards and upwards from here."

Britain's hopes of a medal clean sweep were thwarted in the women's singles final as Dutch top seed Aniek van Koot edged past Shuker 7-6 6-3 in her first tournament since winning September's US Open Grand Slam.

Shuker was hoping to add to the title she had won in the women's doubles on the penultimate day of action where she and Whiley beat third seeds Louise Hunt and Lauren Jones 6-1, 6-1 in their all-British women's doubles semi-final, before the German pair of Kruger and Bianca Osterer were forced to pull out of the final.

The same fate was seen in the men's doubles final where second seeds Marc McCarroll and Sweden's Stefan Olsson were forced to withdraw due to a shoulder injury picked up by Olsson, handing the title to the all-British pairing of Reid and Hewett.

The final of the quad doubles did go ahead and saw Burdekin and partner Ryan Macdonald dominate Richard Green and Ian Payne 6-0 6-0 in an all-British affair.
