West Squash AGM Asks All Member Clubs to Affiliate to ‘Scottish Squash’
In a historic AGM last night the West of Scotland Squash Clubs voted to make affiliation to Scottish Squash compulsory to all its members (just 5 West clubs affiliate at present).
With a majority of 80% of the votes ‘for’ the motion (50 votes to 13) this new proposal will soon be taken to the Scottish Squash AGM to ratify the new membership proposal, before this new deal is finalised.
The same motion, at a West Squash EGM three years ago failed, but only by the narrowest of margins; leading one pro-voter to comment that “We hadn’t lost the vote we were just 0-1 down in the match!”.
Last nights debate was reported to be a ‘lively affair’ with those opposing the motion putting their view in the strongest terms and warning that smaller clubs could go out of business if they are made to find more money (as happened 15+ years ago when West Squash took the requirement of compulsory affiliation out of their constitution).
However those supporting the motion didn’t think that this would happen; and the out-going West President (Henry Reid) was confident that both West and Scottish Squash could work with individual clubs to help them through any difficulties.
(Currently Newlands, David Lloyd Renfrew, Western, Strathgryffe and Nunholm in Dumfries are the five West clubs that choose to affiliate).

Harrow’s Peter O’Hara Wins The 2009/10 West Closed
Peter O’Hara (Newlands) won The 2009/10 West Closed Title at SSRC this weekend by beating Owen Hadden (Giffnock) in the final on Sunday. The match was 3-0 to Peter and although he always seemed to be in charge of proceedings Owen did make life tough for him by getting a couple of good leads in the individual games, especially the 2nd.
However when he was under pressure Pistol Pete always seemed to find another nic, which left Owen wondering what he had to do to keep the pressure on. Another impressive West Closed win for Peter and his 11th Title. (pic left Peter O’Harrow!!) To see all results click here
In the ‘B’ event Norman Patterson (Wishaw) came back from 2-0 down to beat Ashley Stevenson (David Lloyd West End) in an epic 5 games (results here) and Kieran O’Neill (Whitecraigs Rugby) won the ‘C’ event final 3-1 (results here) against Maggy Dick (from SSRC).
