Concordia Squash Players,
The first round of the C competition 2015 took place on Tuesday evening, 8th December. 4 of our junior players entered reducing the average age of entrants considerably. A lot more than anyone would want to admit !
Roland Smith probably had the toughest task of the night having to work hard against the quick and ever improving Elliott Harrison. The 3-0 result doesn't reflect the battle on court. Roland's consistency made the difference. Great match.
Robin Ritchie, Peter Irlam and Don Pattison were the other seniors drawn against opposition at least 40 years younger. (Sorry guys but it's true) All 3 demonstrated their experience and quality but gave their young opponents a good run out. Thank you to them.
John Ormsby's power serve proved too much for Alan Bell, Martin Davison put in one of his better performances to over run Steve Lavery, they've have had their battles in the past. Last but not least, Mark Knott beat the always entertaining Bill Johnson in a well humoured encounter, both playing some shots never seen before nor to be seen again.
Keith Gray went through with a bye, Rory Whaling having to withdraw with injury. Get well soon Rory.
The last 8 play Monday 14th December
Come along and support the event.
The draw for the last 8 was conducted straight after. This is who plays who on Monday 14th December, 6pm start;
Keith Gray v James Rowe
John Ormsby v Robin Ritchie
Peter Irlam v Mark Knott
Roland Smith v Martin Davison.
On Monday 14th December all 3 separate A, B and C Competitions will be played, the last 4 in each to play their semi finals the next night, Tuesday 15th. Come along and support the event, you'll need to bring your own refreshment.
See you there.
