Happy New Year

Squash Club Champs 2016 
Hi all and a happy new year!

 
It’s that time of year again, a time for the start of the squash competitions. 
 
Last year I organised 4 competitions, an open entry (main and plate) and a Ladies only (main and plate). I intend to do the same again with the addition of a veteran’s competition but more about the vets later.
 
The issue at the moment is how people enter for the 4 main competitions.  Last year, for the first time, I experimented with an opt out rather than an opt in system.  In other words I asked the regular players to decline entry otherwise they would be entered.  On the whole this worked well in that participation was better than previous years.  The danger is that too many players are entered but then do not play and I really don’t want that to happen.
 
The process this year is as follows:
 
FOR WESTERN TEAM PLAYERS
You will be entered automatically unless you request not to be so by replying to this email. It really isn’t a problem if you do not want to play but you must opt out unless you want to play.
 
FOR SOCIAL PLAYERS
You need to email me to enter. 
 geoff.cordwell@me.com

 
 
To play in these competitions you merely have to be a member of the club.
 
I will organise the draw and publish the same by Monday next week (11th January) so please do not delay!
 
There is a modest entry fee of £4 and for that you should get a minimum of two games.  The entry fee will be collected through the club admin court booking system and details of how to do this will follow when the entry list is finalised.
 
 
Regards all
