Central Scotland Squash Masters

10 02 2008

The squash masters were at it again this weekend, this time in the Bridge of Allan Open Masters Tournament. Once more they figured in the finals.

Davy Rogan repeated his East of Scotland victory by winning the over 70’s event. Sue Strachan was beaten again in a Masters final in the Ladies’ over 35 event but is hopeful that the results will put her in a good position to be selected when the Scottish National  teams are announced in March.

Nunholm hopes to have representatives at several Scotland age groups for the
Home Internationals in May 2008.

It was a motley crew that presented themselves at nine o’clock. Some looked like refugees from the Friday night before, some just looked bemused to find that Saturday morning existed, while others had not grasped that Scotland is cold if the puddles are frozen and were standing there ‘metaphorically’ in their t-shirts.
