🏆🥇Doubles House League Play-offs Begin for Division 1🥇🏆

The final results for our Doubles Squash League are in, and we’ve had an unexpected twist—there’s a tie for 5th place! Mike and Eric get 5th based on a 3-2 win in a head to head with Kevin and Eric early in the season.

Now, it’s time to gear up for the playoff rounds, which kick off this Monday night! If teams are unable to play on Monday, they may arrange a date to play before next week. Remember, winners of the playoff rounds will advance to the semi-finals, while the other four teams will battle it out for final ranking.

It’s bound to be an intense and thrilling competition as we inch closer to crowning our champions. Let’s bring our A-game, sportsmanship, and passion for squash to the courts!

Best of luck to all the teams competing in the playoffs!

Monday Night House League Round 3!

Hi Everyone,

Here is the schedule for our final round of House League before the league will start up again in January.  The next three weeks will be a scheduled round robin within your level groups and the final week (Dec. 5th) we will combine similar level groups and run a fun round robin.  This will give you a chance to play some other players that you may not have had a chance to play with.  I will be sure to let everyone know when we will be starting up again in the new year.  Be sure to check your new scheduled time for the next three weeks as well as your time for the final week.  I look forward to seeing everyone on Monday!

Super Squash Saturdays

Good Afternoon Squash Buddies

I know that we are all feeling squash withdrawal but here is a small relief. Joe Brown has passed on a YouTube video to me in order to share it with you.

This is a Hardball Singles Match between Jonathan Power and his protege Diago Elias from Peru. Diago is currently ranked 6th in the world in singles softball. Jonathan has put together a Saturday Challenge Match and will broadcast it every Saturday for the next few weeks. He has conscripted Dean Brown and Graham Ryding to do the play by play and reffing. The play by play is worth the watch.

Thank you to Joe for passing this on. Hope you enjoy a little Weekend Squash viewing

For your viewing pleasure!!
