Harrow Signs Women’s WISPA No.10 & 16 Annie Au & Rachel Grinham
DLWE v Townend – Away (Match Report) 13th February 2013
Sean and I arrived so early the club was still shut when we got there, so we nipped across the road to the Dreghorn Fish & Chicken Bar for some carb-loading! At 6.45pm we went back to the club and their No.2 & 5 had arrived and we had No.1 & 3! How does that always happen?
Soon after Sean (Norris) was on at No.3 v Phil McKie so I took to the roof for refereeing duties. It was immediately obvious that this was going to be a clash of styles with Phil playing the shots and Sean chasing them. Sean was his normal nippy self which caused Phil to question some of the pick-ups and he was becoming more and more convinced that the ball had bounced sometimes up to 4 or 5 times! But Sean always calls his 3 bounce pick-ups so I was happy that all was good!!! …………………………………

Edinburgh Open 25th-27th January (BPSA Event)
Want to see some great squash this weekend? Well get yourself along to Edinburgh Sports Club and watch some of the best players in the World.
Daryl Selby and Tom Richards head the seedings for the men’s draw. They are World Ranked 11 & 13 respectively so they will be tough to beat, but ex-winner Adrian Grant (seeded 3/4 and World Ranked 17, now playing with Harrow rackets) will be looking to upset the seedings and retake his crown.
There will also be some top Scottish players there to enjoy the home support. Including ‘Team Harrow’ (!) Greg Lobban (world Ranked 105), Dougie Kempsell and Stuart Crawford, but also Kevin Moran and many others. To see the Full Draw click here
The Women’s even has also got some great players in Emily Whitlock and Lauren Selby (seeded 1 & 2), but home interest will be spearheaded by Frania Gillen-Buchert.

DLWE v SSRC 2 – Away (Match Report) 21st November 2012
A massive seven min trip for Captain Cantlay and the team this week all the way to Maryhill to face SSRC 2.
I fought my way through the cross town traffic and was on time this week and just as well as Martin Sullivan greeted me wielding a dust pan & brush in his hands and said “Right we’re on court now, as I have to leave early.” I replied “OK. Are you gonna play me with the dust pan or the brush?”
So on we went at No.1 and it was a tough 1st game. Martin volleyed away my serves and anything else that was high and loose, fortunately I just edged the game 15-13. The next two were much more straightforward, as I didn’t give Martin the same opportunities and won reasonably comfortably 15-7 15-2. Good to See Andrew McSherry supporting the team (especially as he was the only one to applaud my best shot of the night – an inch perfect forehand drive – which even Martin was surprised didn’t get more recognition!).
The courts were nice and warm due to the new heating system and the balcony was roasting. In fact Rich said it was so hot Davie C may have to take off his scarf and duffel coat soon! But it was obviously all part of the infamous DC warm up.
