The Raphoe Badminton star was in action in the under-15 singles, doubles and mixed doubles tournaments at the Baldoyle Badminton Centre in Dublin.
Chambers advanced through the singles with wins over Caolan Tan (21-7, 21-2) in the last 16, before a tough battle against Charan Deep Rajulapati (22-20, 16-21, 18-21).
He then beat Robert Cowman 21-10, 21-9 in the semi-final but was defeated by top seed Jeffrey Rong 21-12, 21-12 in the final.
Chambers was paired with Rajulapati in the Boy’s Doubles and they beat Eoin Evans and Kaden Tang by 21-7, 21-9, before defeating Luke Marks and Lochlann O’Rourke 21-11, 21-8 in the semi-final.
Again Rong was victorious with his partner Cowman as Chambers and Rajulapati had to settle for silver in a 21-12, 21-10 loss.
In the Mixed Doubles, Chambers and his partner Hannah Shochan came out close winners in the last 16 against Rajulapati and Liya Prakas, 21-16, 19-21, 17-21.
They then cruised into the final with wins over Cowman and Ella Cheung (23-21, 21-13) and Dave Jaison and Carol Joy (21-15, 21-8).
