Jester’s Junior Championships<br />
The annual Junior Jester’s was once again hosted by the<br />
Glenora <strong>Club</strong> Edmonton. This event is designated by Squash<br />
Canada as a core event meaning the entry list is much<br />
stronger than for a regular junior tournament provincially.<br />
With over 150 of the best juniors in Canada in attendance<br />
competition was always going to be fierce. Our juniors<br />
performed admirably coming out with the best results of any<br />
of the clubs taking part. Particular note should go to<br />
Hannah Treleaven, Noel Heaton and Jay Peris who won<br />
their events; Jarrett Peris who was second in his; and<br />
William Kuhn, Brett Schille, Graham Kerford and Tyson<br />
Schille who came third in theirs.<br />
world Health Edgemont Junior Open<br />
The World Health <strong>Club</strong> Edgemont hosted the second of the<br />
local junior events. Our junior program was, as always, well<br />
represented with 27 juniors from the CWC in attendance.<br />
After a couple of days of high class squash, our juniors came<br />
away with some great results. Congratulations to all who<br />
competed especially:<br />
Champions:<br />
Graham Kerford - Boys U17/19<br />
William Kuhn - Boys U13<br />
Jay Peris - Boys U13/15 Novice<br />

<strong>Calgary</strong> Open<br />
The Glencoe <strong>Club</strong> hosted this year’s prestigious annual<br />
<strong>Calgary</strong> Open. With a strong field from across Alberta every<br />
draw was bound to be tough. After a long weekend of top<br />
squash the champions were crowned. Congratulations to all<br />
<strong>Winter</strong> <strong>Club</strong> members who took part, in particular, champion<br />
Susie King and runners up Neil Pohlman, Ian Sefton, Brett<br />
Schille, Hannah Treleaven, Kelly Clements and Emilie<br />
Heaton.<br />
Bankers Hall no frills<br />
As usual, the Bankers Hall event sold out in record time _ a<br />
combination of excellent value for money and a downtown<br />
venue seems to trigger a real buzz in the squash community.<br />
123 players registered, a total sell out. With the perfect<br />
combination of great squash and a relaxed social atmosphere<br />
the event was a true success. Congratulations to all CWC<br />
members who took part, in particular Ian Sefton who<br />
dominated the men’s level 2 category.<br />
