2011 Elite Squash Sucesses at Thorndon

2011 was a year worth reflecting upon for our elite squash players. Evan Williams was selected for the NZ Mens team to compete at the World Championships in Germany. He was also a member of the championship winning Wellington team along with club mates,Sam Atkins and Keegan Burckhart, winning the NZ Inter District Teams event for the fourth time in five years. These same players also helped the club to the final of the Cousins Shield; the symbol of NZ club supremacy for men. Tony Naughton was able to hold back the years to win the NZ Masters 60+ title, as well as representing NZ in their historic victory over the  Australia Masters team for the Vic Belsham Trophy. This is the first  time NZ have beaten Australia for this trophy since 2000! Lets ensure the club continues to succeed at all levels of squash in 2012.

Congratulations to Thorndon junior Charlotte Van Boheemen (Charlie) who competed in the NZ Slazenger National Tennis Championships in Auckland and came away as the under 14 plate winner. This is a fantastic achievement for Charlotte who is a proud member of the club often playing for both junior and senior interclub teams on her Saturdays.

New Club Shirts

This year the club will be asking ALL players representing Thorndon at interclub, regional & national level in teams or individual events to wear the club shirts (maroon/gold), shirts can purchased from the office at a very reasonable price. They are fantastically retro and they'll build a great recognisable Thorndon Club brand.

 

Squash Tournaments in 2012

Thorndon will host 3 graded tournaments in 2012, Masters (35+); Open & B grade (all tournaments are open to men, women & juniors afilliated to squash) with the Masters as our first tournament. Whilst we are waiting for confirmation from DB I am confident they will once again provide the club with a good sponsorship deal.
