GOLD for Canterbury at the 2018 South Island Quadrangular event

Quads Gold Winning Team_optOver the weekend of 28-29 July, Timaru Squash Club hosted the 2018 South Island Quadrangular Team’s event. 

During this event Canterbury, Midlands, Otago and Southland compete a total of 16 matches across Juniors (3 female & 3 male), Seniors (3 female & 3 male), Masters (2 female & 2 male).  Each match win gains a point for the team, so each round we have an overall winner, and then the section winners as well.  Once all 3 rounds are completed, the points are added together for the overall winner and the section winners.  As you can imagine, every point counts, games and sets, especially as it may come down to game points in the situation of a draw.

All Canterbury players showed passion and desire over the whole weekend, it is amazing what happens when players pull on those Red & Black shirts!  Well done to the whole team for bringing the Trophy home.  An awesome team effort to win by 2 points ahead of Otago.

Our Junior section came out the victors, noting the performance by the boys to drop only the one match over the weekend.  Brilliant!!!!

The Seniors played with pride and being pipped at the post by one point being runners up to Otago.  Well done to Simon Slade on his mammoth 5 setters on Saturday, and Grace Hymers for taking to the court on Sunday morning and grinding out a win in 5.

Masters section was a hotly contested arena.   After 3 appearances at this even, Liza and Jess came away with their first wins, with Tim & Joe holding the fort dropping the one match.  In the end, the Canterbury Masters were runners up to Southland, after 7 all draw on matches, 6/1 draw on games, and a difference of 15 points.

Overall an awesome effort by a tight knit team, who supported each other and showed great sportsmanship over the whole weekend.
