The Box League is open to Men and Ladies (any standard) who are member of the club and will be run over the summer months from April 2009 onwards.

The Leagues will consist of three or four players per league thus keeping the player commitment down to playing only two or three games per month.

The matches played each month are the best of two sets (tie-breaks in each). See here for rules, contact information and how to enter.

Last weekend saw the new Dumfries & Galloway U-30 Squash competition sponsored by Jas. P Wilson and Backswing played at the courts of Stewartry Community Sports Club in Castle Douglas.

A healthy entry of young players from ALL Dumfries & Galloway Squash Clubs played over the course of Friday night and all day Saturday. Due to the system played all players involved were guaranteed at least 3 games as they battled for final places.

The first round provided no real shocks but Callum Wilson of SCSC had to battle back from being 8-4 down in the first game against 11 year old Dean Brotherston of Nunholm to sneak it 11-8 and to then go on and secure a 3-0 win.

The second round saw the 4 top seeds progress with probably Chris Bellwood of Nunholm being pushed hardest by club mate Iain Anderson. Chris just had the edge on consistency during the match to secure a win and a semi final spot.

The semi finals brought together the top 4 seeds, all from the Nunholm Club, with the first between Steven Wallace(1) against Chris Bellwood(3) and the second Chris McCutcheon(4) playing Jordan Currie(2). Read the rest of this entry »
