The Christchurch Boys High School Squash Team recently returned after what is believed to be the biggest tour that the school has embarked on.

 

With some of the worst winters on record - airports closed, trains stopped and yes the Euro Star to Paris also disrupted, snow storms and even Disney Land in California closed, the team rolled on. Somehow we just kept going under the radar of all those disruptions.

 

The boys are indebted to our expats Mike Weston in New York; Robbie Burnett in Ilkely who arranged billets and games. They certainly were wonderful hosts and whose company we all enjoyed immensely. Steve Wren and his son Calvin who many in Canterbury fondly remember stayed with us in Hartford. Calvin played in the US and made the quarter-final. Steve helped us with some of the tour so it was nice catching up with him again.

 

The trip was a huge success and we are indebted to the many people who helped make it all happen. A special thanks also to Gavin Bird our tour leader and Lynda Fahey our team mum and manager. We are sure all the boys will be better players for the experince.

 

Squash results

Poly Prep School New York (top four players excluded) Loss 2-6

City View Pro Team (Our top four players) Draw 2-2

Ilkley (UK) (top four players excluded) Win 7-1. Second day, Loss 3-5.

 

Our best results

US Junior Open (draws of 96. Drop in draw). Our seedings did not always help us for example being seeded against top players in the second round. This also affected Ed and Andrew in the Scottish Junior Open.

 

Andrew Ellis Under 17. 16^th 24th

Paul Coll Under 19. 16^th- 24th

Edward Dromgool Under 19. 16^th-24th

 

Scottish Junior Open (Swiss Draw)

Andrew Ellis Under 17. 15^th

Edward Dromgool Under 19. 13^th

Paul Coll Under 19. 4^th. It was great seeing Paul make the semi-finals. Although the remaining games were close, the frustration was certainly there that he could not quite make it.

A further high light was Sam McCarrolls back to back wins in the Under 15 section.

 

British Junior Open (64 Swiss Draw)

Andrew Ellis Under 17. 43^rd (won 3, loss 3)

Jacob Turnbull Under 17. 49^th (won 1)

Under 19 Paul Coll 23rd (won 3, lost 3)

Under 19 Edward Dromgool 29th (won 3, lost 3)

Please be advised that the Annual General Meeting for Squash Canterbury will take place on Wednesday 3 March, 2010, at 7pm.

The venue will be upstairs in the lounge at Squash HQ, 8 Takaro Avenue, Sockburn, Christchurch.

The long awaited trip has come and on behalf of Gavin Bird, Lynda Fahey (our wonderful team manager), Geoff Ellis and the boys we would like to thank all the Squash community for their support. For supporting our many fundraisers and to all of you who turned up to our farwell dinner at Robbies Elmwood on 1 December thank you. We will be in New york for 3 days, Hartford for the US Junior Open then to the UK for the Scottish and British Junior Opens. We also have games against a school and two club teams. The boys will also visit Madison Square Garden to see an ice hockey game and in Edinburgh will see a football game. There are lots of other fun things planned including a 6 day sightseeing trip to London and Paris. On the 15th of January will be our farwell dinner in the Eifel Tower. An experience we are sure they will never forget. I am sure our boys will come back buzzing with lots of stories to tell ready for the 2010 season, so watch out you players out there - they will be after your points!

Best wishes for Christmas from the Boys’ High team 

The Canterbury Junior Boys Squash National Championship winning team added a major trophy to their cabinet by successfully capturing the Overall Junior Team of the Year Trophy at the Canterbury Sports Awards on Friday night.  This prestigious award was all the more important given that the awards, managed by Sport Canterbury, have amalgamated the summer and winter categories into one this year.  All of the squad members were present at the gala ceremony at the Christchurch Convention Centre with Captain Ed Dromgool accepting the award on stage with a thoughtful speech.  Megan Craig was also a finalist in the Young Achiever Category demonstrating the remarkable achievements she has accomplished in 2008.  Squash was one of the biggest sports represented with 27 people in attendance, all on hand to celebrate the successful on court performances this year.

 

Congratulations to the team for their remarkable achievement and for our other individuals recognised on the night.  It was a great night to be a squashie!

The Canterbury Masters team defended their national teams title with an upset win over the home side Bay of Plenty in an intense final in Whakatane, 6-4.  This was the third straight year the team had won the title, showing Canterburys dominance in masters competition.  Keys in the final were wins by Karen Walton and Lawrence Skurr who reversed their results against the same opponents from the individuals event, along with Clark Ellery (B1) who upset Rob Wyatt (A2) a higher graded player.  The team had earlier defeated Auckland (7-3) and Waikato (9-1) in round robin play.

 

Congratulations to the team on behalf of Squash Canterbury.  This is the second national title won by Canterbury, following on from the Canterbury U19 Junior Boys team earlier this month

Rousing speeches and entertaining presentations were the highlights of the Squash Canterbury Awards Night at the Christchurch Football Squash Club on Friday night.  There was plenty of achievements to be acknowledged with a crowd of around 100 squashies gathering and were entertained by MCs Jav and Dan from the Court Theatre.

 

Three members of the 1977 Canterbury junior national championship team were in attendance to acknowledge the title winning 2009 junior team.  These are the only two occasions Canterbury has won the boys championship.  Chris Wasley, Robin Clements and Coach Doug Lawrie were there from the 77 team and everyone appreciated a chance to see their paper clippings, tournament programmes and catch-up.

 

The gracious acceptance speeches were very heart-felt and really made for a memorable night.  Special thanks to Kirsten Taylor, John Horwood and Paul Arscott and the rest of the team at the Christchurch Football club.

The Canterbury U19 junior boys team have won the prestigious NZ junior teams title for the first time since 1977 at the North Shore Squash Club this afternoon.  This caps off a remarkable weekend of success for Canterbury juniors winning three national individual titles, two more runners-up and a host of other strong placings.

The boys defeated perennial powerhouse Auckland side in the grand final three matches to one.  This is the top junior teams prize on offer in New Zealand, and Auckland have won the title over 15 times.

 

The team went through undefeated in pool play with wins over Northland, 3-1, Otago, 4-0, Wellington, 4-0, before overpowering Central in the semi final, 4-0.

 

Canterbury produced this result following a successful but fatiguing national individuals event over the weekend at the same venue.  Paul Coll finished runners-up in the U19 division and Ed Dromgool was fourth.  Jarrod Beaumont finished third in the boys U17 grade.  Rounding out the victorious teams side were Andrew Ellis and Spencer Te Pou.

 

That 1977 champion side consisted of Stuart Davenport, who went on to win the US Open and was ranked in the top three in the world, Lyndsay Walton, Chris Wasley, Gary Monk and Robin Clements.  This 1977 side had finished runners-up for the three years previous and until today was the only other Canterbury junior boys team to win the title in the history of the competition.

 

Coll was awarded the overall most improved junior boy prize for 2009.

 

Dromgool, Coll and Ellis were also a part of the national championship wining Christchurch Boys High School side in August, and the school plans to tour the USA and UK for a series of international tournaments in January next year.

 

The team was coached by Squash Canterbury District Coach Mike Allred and managed by Mike Coll.

 

The Canterbury junior girls side fought hard and finished fourth, losing to Wellington in their playoff, 1-3.

 

Megan Craig continued her meteoric rise up the rankings winning the U17 individual title, taking out the NZ most improved junior girl award for a second successive year and in the teams event defeated U19 national champion Lana Harrison of Auckland.

 

Another Cantabrian Joely Bennett was successful winning the girls U15 title.  Nicola Kennedy was runners-up in the girls U13 division.  Todd Bennett was also a national champion taking out the boys U11 title.

Canterburys junior players have had tremendous success over the weekend at the Junior National Championships in North Harbour.  Three top-seeded Cantabrians won their respective finals and Megan Craig (Girls U17), Joely Bennett (Girls U15) and Todd Bennett (Boys U11) can now call themselves 2009 National Champions.  Paul Coll (Boys U19) and Nicola Kennedy (Girls U13) finished runners-up in their grade finals.  Jarrod Beaumont (Boys U17) and Ed Dromgool (Boys U19) ended up third and fourth respectively in tightly contested grades. 

 

Canterbury now turns their attention to the teams event with the Canterbury boys team ranked top seeds, and the girls are ranked fourth.  Coll and Dromgool anchor the boys team and are joined by Beaumont, Andrew Ellis and Spencer Te Pou.  Craig heads the girls team along with Joely Bennett, Ella Dromgool, Stephanie Chambers and Poppy Tie.  The teams event concludes on Wednesday.

16-year-old Cantabrian Megan Craig has produced her best showing in tournament play, making the top four at the New Zealand Squash Championships.  Craig tore through the draw from the 11^th seed spot, along the way defeating the #3 seed Kylie Lindsay (Matamata).  Craig, a member of the New Zealand junior team that played in the world championships in India earlier this month, came from 2-1 down to win the last two games 12-10 and 13-11 for the best win of her young career.  Craig said she was thrilled with her efforts today, beating a player more than 70 spots above her in world rankings.

"That was my best win ever. I didn’t expect to get in the top four at senior nationals," Craig said.  "I played last year and I was 26th seed. It was pretty awesome. I was pleased because I was down in the fourth. The key was keeping my head and think about where I was putting it."

In other individual results Scott Gardiner maintained his 8^th seeding finishing in the 7^th-8^th spot.  Grant Craig finished runner-up in the special plate and Paul Coll was runner up in the plate.

 

In team play, the Canterbury men were just edged for 3^rd place in a two-point comeback (132-130) after the matches (2-2) and games (7-7) were tied against Bay of Plenty.  Megan Craig was again the stand-out for the Canterbury women, accounting for NZ junior team-mate Amanda Landers-Murphy in a 5-game marathon.  The ladies finished up 5^th after a decisive 4-0 win over Bay of Plenty in the 5^th/6^th playoff.  Waikato took out the overall ladies title and Auckland the men, thanks to help from the individual winners Joelle King and Kashif Shuja respectively.
