DLWE (Kelvin Financial Planning) v Whitecraigs RFC – Home (Match Report) 30th September 2015

westsquashsitelogo1
Well team squash is back for another season and I was getting the usual questions about how Doug can’t have been playing much if I was playing above him! Bloody cheek I say! I may not be in the best shape of my life (in fact it’s always amazed me how much ‘Exercise’ and ‘Extra Fries’ sound alike!) but the shots are getting better.

The teams looked great in the new ‘Kelvin Financial Planning’ bottle green t-shirts and many thanks to Michael Jackson for sponsoring the squads again this year (and I’m optimistic for all the teams this season as the depth at the club is growing).

We’ve strengthened our team squads this year and the 1st team now has the services of the DL Renfrew coach, Jason Lang. He’s making the trip North of the river to come and join the squad at No.2. Jason and I used to play together at Renfrew, when I coached there, and in retrospect what a team we were building with Kevin Moran, Dougie Kempsell, the two Jasons and Sean Norris (in fact Sean was the only weak link we had!!). I think that team playing now would have a good chance of winning the league, but we were all much younger then (except Sean and I who were much older!)

Anyway back to the match and it was just as well we had new Jase, as our opponents (Whitecraigs Rugby) had also strengthened at No.2 – and it was all down to the No.2s at the end of the night!

Nick Matthew beat Karim Abdel Gawad in the semi-final of the 2015 AJ Bell British Grand Prix. The World No.2 progresses to his third consecutive final at the British Grand Prix, where this year he will face World No.1 Mohamed Elshorbagy.

Nick said about his semi-final opponent “Karim offered a different challenge to my other opponents. I’ve never played him before and with his silky skills he presented a totally different challenge. I never felt totally settled” (Nick Matthew (ENG) bt Karim Abdel Gawad 3-0: 11-7, 11-6, 13-11)

Top seed Mohamed Elshorbagy won 3-2 against Gregory Gaultier in the 2nd semi-final as the crowd were treated to an impressive display of athleticism from both players, which went in Elshorbagy’s favour as the 24-year-old finished won in the 5th game 7-11, 11-9, 11-7, 6-11, 11-8.
