The annual Club Tournament organised by Alistair Maclean was held over a couple of weeks leading up to finals day held last Sunday 22nd May.
Junior events had been held the previous day managed by Andy D’Alessandro with the finals to held on the Sunday.
Unlike previous years, it was decided to have mini medal ceremonies after each event final. This then allowed all necessary to be present for each presentation and photo session. The last few events were presented after the main club championships.
The afternoon was a resounding success with a great deal of superb squash played from all of the participants ranging from 10yrs to 70yrs old!
The presentations were made by our Club Chairman Mike Macnamee and Club Captain Alistair Maclean.
