The Final between Martin Davison (-7) v Peter Archbold (-10) on Friday 24th January was a thoroughly entertaining match with Martin hanging on for grim death in most of the rallies and managing to play some spectacular if unorthodox shots. Peter played tidy length squash often keeping Martin at the back but even on the balcony it was hard to judge where Martin was going to put the ball next, for this reason Peter had to work very hard to ‘go seek it.’
Both games were close and could have gone the other way on another night.
21-18, 21-20 to Peter with the spectators hoping for a decider that never came. Great squash.
A few beers and a curry in the village followed.
There was a much lower number of entries for this years Handicap, a competition that has been enjoyed by many in the past. Perhaps the time of year was a factor however I’m open to suggestions as to ways we can encourage those in all of the leagues to take part.
Previous match scores have suggested the handicap system isn’t far away and all entrants have a chance to progress.
Thank you to those who came along to spectate, Bill Johnson of course and to those who helped mark games in the earlier stages.
