In our final game of the season against unbeaten top-of-the-table Scarborough 3, we needed to win by at least 10 points to be crowned champions of Division 5. Although we won the match 3-2, sadly we were 2 points short, finishing second in the league with 259 points to the new champions Scraborough 3 on 261 points.
Though this is a time to celebrate, not just winning this match 3-2, but also securing promotion to Division 4 of the York & District squash league.
On the night, both Jess and Richard had tough matches against very strong opponents, both losing 3-0. Then our top three players, Mick, Ian and John all played superbly, each winning their matches 3-0.
The support was fantastic from the squad members and supporters, inlcuding Sarah, Izzy, Emily, Kira, Chris, Drew, Nathan, Peter, Perry and others. The Man of the Match must go to our whole squad for delivering this promotion to Division 4, inlcuding Mick R and everyone else already mentioned above. We had lots of fun and competitive matches, played in a sporting and friendly manner throughout the season.
Well done everyone at York RI Squash.
Richard Dawson, York RI 1 captain
