SQUASH
By DROP SHOT!
Will Markwort of Forbes Squash Club will be representing NSW in the Trans Tasman Squash Exchange in Cairns in late August, joining the team as first reserve after playing recently in the NSW CHS Squash carnival at Thornleigh.
Will has been playing for Forbes for six years starting as a junior and now playing in the men’s competition.
Will has progressed through the local squash grades and with his ‘never give up’ attitude has I believe a promising future in local and tournament squash.
