Our annual championships began last night Wednesday 5 August and continue 6, 12 and 13 August until finals Friday 14 August.

Last week’s Winter competition match results follow.

Match of the week between Jake Shaw and Alex Doyle could only be described as an intense, riveting and highly entertaining display of tight, hard squash with barely a second between strokes.

Jake was two sets down then stole the third set 15-12 only to succumb to Alex’s relentless power and touch game losing the fourth set 11-15.

After four big sets, sub Grace Chudleigh and Danielle Hornery were set for set until Danielle moved ahead and won the fifth.
