Harry Potter Themed Junior Squash Blitz – World Squash Day 2016
entrants got three matches over the course of the afternoon against people of similar standard. Matches were against the clock for 10 minutes each with a 2 minute warm-up before each match. We also applied a cap of 20 points per player per match which ensured no one walked away with a match and made the final result much more exciting! Matches were all scheduled out and the tournament ran very smoothly – completed in under 2 & 1/2 hours. This was a great achievement for a club with only two courts!
CLOSING DATE: 4th November
