A slightly lower turnout saw 16 keen players pit their wits against each other for nothing more than the love of the game. 2 teams of eight played each other on a round robin ad -hoc basis (just as it was last time round in September) in ten minute matches.
‘The Pinks’ were lead by Tim Gorman and up against ‘The Greens’ headed up by Steve Ross.
With everyone fairly familiar with the 10 minute match format, there was quick turn around. In all, 32 games were played.
I think the handicaps were just about right and there were some closely fought games.
Matt Gutherey, new to both the club and our competitions was hugely keen and ended up playing 6 games, at no time looking like he might run out of steam.
Jonny Woodhouse, Peter Edney, Graeme Sneddon and Andy Lawrence also shone, all playing 5 games and scoring heavily for their respective teams.
The Green team won in the end with a points tally of 665 over the Pinks total of 603.
The continued doom and gloom of Covid and new variants and therefore the likelihood of further restrictions didn’t dampen what was a great night of squash and ‘social’ in Cramlington village later on. At least we got to do it before the next lockdown !
