Dorset Junior Closed 2024 Results

Dear all players and parents

Thanks – First and foremost may I extend my thanks to all those who helped out running courts over the weekend – this made for a near on continuous court usage which helped with keeping us on or ahead of schedule.

  • Saturday: Zoe Wallace, Ellenor Oliver, Alex Fordham, David Beater (photography) & Bev Vatcher
  • Sunday: Janet Biles, Ellenor Oliver, Ali Wood, Paul Taylor, Nyah Williams, Jack Hall & Bev Vatcher

A huge thank you for our Sponsors; Slades, Clinic@78 and Karakal for providing trophies, prizes & funding towards tournament costs.

Well Done to all our players, there was some amazing squash played and fabulous to have such a big contingent from Jersey taking part and boosting our Dorset numbers and being some new competition.  You are all our future of Dorset Squash or indeed Squash in general where ever you end up.  You all played in excellent spirit and hopefully have all found new areas to work on in your own games.

Trophies – please would all trophy winners Engrave their trophies prior to returning them to us by the start of September 2025.

Photographs – We are still sorting the photos and will send shortly – I just want to get these results out now.

We will post a selection of photos on the Dorset Squash and Racketball social media sites celebrating the success of our juniors.  

Finally, please do feedback any comments on the tournament so we can continue to improve and do our best.  Thank you to those who have already fed back to Bev and I many of whom have been extremely positive.  I would also like to take time to thank players and parents being so accommodating and understanding with the flexibility of match timings and courts, it is as we all know very variable depending on the length of matches.

This has been a great start to the season and hopefully we can see similar support to our Grand Prix series the first of which will be 13 Oct at Canford details to follow in due course.
