Saturday Junior Coaching (26th July) - last one of the season!

This Saturday (26th July) we will be running the last scheduled session of junior coaching. There will be one beginners from 10.30 to 12.00. And an extra hour for the more advanced players from 12.30 to 1.30pm.

Watch this space for details of the new season's coaching sessions. We will be changing the timing of the sessions and hope to put the full programme on the club website for you and your parents to check out.

Remember that eye-protection should be worn for all junior sessions.

10.30 - 12.00 session. Coaches: Martyn Symmons and Mike Macnamee
12.30 - 13.30 session. Coach: Mike Macnamee and Martyn Symmons

For the record - Squad of Gosh 2007-2008

Cast your mind back to the dark days of winter and playing your junior league matches - seems like a million years ago now.

But here for the record are the final results from the 2007-2008 season. They are already looking pre-historic given the amazing improvement in some of our juniors - who are also leaping up the county ladder. But this final listing will be the basis for the start of the new season. People will be promoted and demoted according to the scores here. Remember that the rules gave extra points for players who got through all their games - most of the league winners were decided on this.

MiA means missing in action - these were members who either dropped out or never started to play their matches. Let's hope to see them getting more games in the new season.

Cambridgeshire Junior Squash Grand Prix comes to Comberton.

A Grand Prix might sound like zooming around the courts in little racing cars but not so... in fact it is a day when everyone plays a load of matches and ends up with a place in the ranking.

As a warm-up for the new season there will be an under-15 Grand Prix competition on Saturday 6th September at Comberton. This is designed to encourage players who are not in the county squad at the moment. For more details contact Ray Scrivens (details on the club website).
