I'm sure you have read all the arguments surrounding a change to the scoring system on other websites. But what do you think we should do at local level? Vote now! You can choose from the two main contenders (Traditional or PAR to 11) or perhaps one of my alternatives. This is fun poll and not meant to stir any rumours. However the committee is interested in the result.
The Sheffield Junior open took place at Abbeydale Park Rackets and Fitness Club last weekend (8-9 November 2008). The event has grown over the last few years and now attracts entrants from all over the country.
The England Squash sanctioned event attracted over 100 entries with events for boys and girls from u9 to u19. The competition was a monrad so everyone had plenty of games throughout a jam packed weekend. Local interest featured young Nick Wall (jnr) from Abbeydale winning the u9 mixed event, Jade Thompson also from Abbeydale winning the u17 girls event, and Ashley Flathers from Brampton Manor winning the u15 boys against another Abbeydale player, the fast improving Tom Turner.
In the second half of the season Abbeydale is staging another England Squash sanctioned event with Silver status which should attract an even bigger field. Many thanks to all those local volunteers who helped make the event such a big success especially Ian Peach, Howard Baxter, Andy Raine and Jeremy Turner.
