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 />
