Close matches at the top divisions see no top scorers in first four divisions. Two months into the season has seen 129 matches played in the Shetland Squash Leagues. September saw two regular league players Gary Tulloch and David Kirk scoring a perfect 24 points with two new comers to the league Keith Saddington and Garry Spence matching that score. All four players worked very hard to achieve and the only way to separate these four was by a draw which saw Gary Tulloch become the high scorer for September.

Octobers League saw more players coming back into form and the matches becoming a lot closer. Graham Davie then became top scorer in October being the only player to achieve a perfect score.

The current high scorers from 1 to 10 are as follows: David Kirk (47), Keith Saddington (47), Graeme Davie (42), Stuart fox (41), Jason Beeston (39), Gary Tulloch (38), Ramsay Hogg (36), Billy Mycock (35), Davie Garrick (35), Glen Tyler (35).

The next event is the AGM tomorrow at 11am at Clickimin followed by the first interclub of the season all are welcome.

Shetland Squash has taken over running the monthly leagues at Clickimin.

They have been revised and this year they will run for seven months from
September 2009 to March 2010.

You need to register to take part, all the necessary details are in the
attached documents. You need to join a Squash Club in Shetland to be part of
the leagues (it does not have to be Shetland Squash) and fill out a league
registration form.

Please try and register by 24th August 2009 otherwise we may not be able to
guarantee your place.

We are also looking for about 10 people to volunteer to be casual referees
for the league. Necessary training will be provided as required. Most games
will not be refereed but there maybe games when one or both parties wants a
referee. This is to encourage people to play by the correct rules and to get
as many games played as possible.

Can you please pass this on to anyone else that you know that maybe
interested in taking part. Click on the icons below for full details.

Shetland Junior Squash Winter Newsletter

Dear Parents & Guardians & Members

Thank you for your support so far this year. All the juniors seem to be progressing well at their various stages of learning the game. I am just writing a quick letter to update you on what is on offer over the rest of the season.

In terms of coaching if Members could just come to the same times that they usually went to unless otherwise told which will depend on numbers of new players and availability of all players. The total cost will be £7 for the coaching with an additional £7 if they are attending the Sunday sessions.

Any member can take part in any tournaments that fits their age although I would advise them attending a Sunday Session before playing in their first tournament. This is to give them an idea of the standard that they will be playing.

For Beginners / intermediates we may try and organise a mini squash tournament in February / March 2009 although this will be linked in with squash coaching taking place in Whalsay, Aith and Brae.

If anybody is available to help with refereeing during any of the under 13 tournaments then please let me know as I will need some assistance in order for these to take place. If you could let me know at the same time as your member registers.

For the Under 19’s trip to Aberdeen I do need at least one other adult to come with myself two adults would be better and a female is preferable but not essential.

We shall be doing bag packing at some point through next year to keep our funds up but I will send out further details about that closer to the time.

Thanks for your time in reading this letter. For more details please turn over.

Best Wishes & Have A Happy Festive Season
