Charlotte lifts national title
Charlotte and Bill, from Rustington, were both World and European champions in 2005 but they were unable to compete in the World Championships in Croatia this year because they could not afford to enter.
Their father, Ian, said: "Both of them also got asked to attend the USA Open, which is invite only, but we didn't have the money to go there.
