Inter-school Squash Proves Great Success
|
|
 As
a social event on the run up to Christmas, Windscale squash club
head coach Linda Winder, in conjunction with local authorities and
head teachers in West Cumbria, organised two inter-school squash
competition events.
The first competition to be run was for secondary schools and it was
to be the largest, with teams of five players. Seven teams were
entered from six different schools as follows St Benedicts A & B
teams, West Lakes Academy A&B teams, Whitehaven, St Bees, and
Keswick. All teams had appointed captains, who were in charge of
making sure players were on the correct court at the time required,
and games were marked properly.
Pupils, teachers and everybody involved all agreed what a fantastic
day it was, with St Benedicts A running out winners over West Lakes
A; however, a special mention goes to Keswick School who, after some
encouragement, fielded a team for the first time and put in some
good performances. Their attendance was appreciated by all.
Linda would like to thank all head teachers of the competing schools
for giving permission to allow the event to happen, and Windscale
Squash Club for the use of the facilities for the day.
