JUNIOR MEN’S TRANS TASMAN<br />
TEST SERIES <strong>2006</strong><br />
Message from Chief Executive<br />
<strong>Squash</strong> New Zealand<br />
On behalf of <strong>Squash</strong> New Zealand, I would like to warmly<br />
welcome all teams On behalf of <strong>Squash</strong> New Zealand I am<br />
pleased to welcome coaches Geoff Davenport and John<br />
Arcidiacono, and the Australian U19 Trans-Tasman <strong>test</strong> team,<br />
to New Zealand.<br />
It is an important <strong>series</strong> because it provides international<br />
competition for young players from both countries, and it should<br />
provide an indication of the likely competitiveness of both<br />
teams at the upcoming World Junior Men’s Championships in<br />
Palmerston North.<br />
This year the <strong>series</strong> is being hosted by the Mana and <strong>Squash</strong><strong>Gym</strong><br />
Palmerston North Clubs. <strong>Squash</strong> NZ greatly appreciates the<br />
support of these clubs, and special thanks to Steve Baker<br />
(Mana) and Grant Smith (<strong>Squash</strong><strong>Gym</strong>) for their efforts.<br />
I would also like to recognise the work of Robbie Wyatt and<br />
Nick Mita, the New Zealand team coaches, for their work in<br />
preparing the New Zealand team.<br />
Good luck to everyone involved and enjoy the squash.<br />
Peter Fergusson<br />
Chief Executive<br />
