World Squash Day

The annual world squash day was held in October which had the squash section battling it out internally to see which nationality/region are the best at the football club. The format is a running event where each player tries to amass as many points as possible against their same seeded players by playing short games and then having to run to another court and continue with a new game. Special thanks to Ambi who timed the event for entire 3 hours, Ladies/Mans exhibition players (Carmen, Karen, Dick Lau & Rudi) and Blade Ltd for subsidizing prizes for the winners!

 

The best team was Hong Kong Island in both formats: Eric Ho, Jason Lam, William Fan, Jeff Leung, Charles Li & Coco Cheung.

 

Award for the most points got Mike Zimmerman 97 pts (non-handicap) and Stuart Gates 116 pts (handicap).
