Back for the European Team Champs

Good week at the European champs and we brought home both the men’s and
women’s titles.

We beat the Irish 2-1 and the men beat the French team in a very tight final.
We all enjoyed the week and it is always nice to be away as a team and you
can’t beat playing for England.

Sarah Jane did a good initiation at the finals dinner which consisted of a Gangnam
style dance down the centre of the room ending up on stage strutting her moves.
Top marks! 

It was a big night for my premier league team Tuesday as it was the finals in
Nottingham vs Duffield. I unfortunately missed out on playing as I have been
suffering from an ear infection all week so was disappointed to not play. We
won though 3-2 so that was our 5th title and 4 in a row which i think is an
unbelievable achievement. Delighted for the team and manager Pete Smith as I
know it’s tough to organise the team throughout the year but as always he does
a fantastic job.

The British open is next in Hull and it’s the last tournament of the season

before the summer break. We start on the 21st May. Come and show your support.
It should be a great tournament.

Off to the European Team Championships

Heading off to the European Championships today in Amsterdam today.

We are number one seeds in both the Men’s and Women’s events. I’m really looking forward to the week ahead as I love the team events and playing for England. We start in a pool group of 4 teams with two matches on Wednesday and one Thursday. Our women’s team is Laura Massaro, me, Jenny Duncalf and a debut for Sarah Jane Perry. Looking forward to the initiation!!!!
 
It should be a great week and hopefully we can bring both the titles home.

Update – 3rd April

I am back from Malaysia now where I got to the final losing out to Laura Massaro. It was a good but tough week and there were certainly no easy matches. There are always things to work on and am now looking forward to a good 6 weeks of training getting ready for the British Open in Hull.
 
I ‘m having a few days rest now to let the body recover and to get over the jetlag. 8 hours is no fun!! Early mornings and early nights is the common theme.
 
We have a big match on Tuesday 9th when it’s the semi finals of the premier league. We are playing at home (Croydon) and are taking on Oxford. It should be a great night of squash so come down and support us.
 
The new April rankings are out and after getting to the final in Malaysia I’m back up to 4.
