SIA - CSC Bilateral 2012

Another great afternoon of great squash and friendship. SIA played host to this year's 15th SIA-CSC Bilateral Games. Overall results was CSC winning SIA 5-2 to take the challenge trophy.

As for squash, SIA won 4-3. Details of the individual games below:

Eric vs Marcus 1-3 (6-11,4-11,11-7,10-12) 
Jeremy vs Pang  3-1 (10-12,12-10,11-8,11-8)
Eric Yeow vs Michel 0-3 (4-11,9-11,11-13)
Gillian vs Royston 0-3 (9-11,5-11,9-11)
Hassan vs Gary 3-0 (11-5,11-9,11-7)
And the man of the match:
Yak Keng vs Janssen  3-1 (11-8,7-11,12-10,11-8)

Mazlan's first taste if battle on the court:
Mazlan vs Royston 0-3 (8-11,5-11,1-11)

Man of the match: Ng Yak Keng who who overcame his opponent by a narrow margin in the 3rd and 4th sets to win the deciding tie of the day. 

Mazlan had his first taste of competitive squash and looking forward to more appearances for the club.

The SIA - CSC Bilateral has always been a good opportunity for our club players to get exposure to playing against players at or above their current grade. The annual National Squash League (NSL) does provide a 4-5 month season for one to improve but that is limited to playing with players within the same grade. Sad to say, we have been unable to field NSL league teams in SIA due to lack of sufficient players for a viable team.

SIA's line up in terms of NSL grading was A,D,E,E,E(Ladies C),NG vs CSC's C,C, E,E,E,NG.

An evenly matched lineup where every tie could turn the results. The opponents did not have a ladies tie which put us at an advantage where the tie was 3-3 based on the 6 men tie.

Next stop: SIA vs SCC on 14th October.

Friday Oct 21st squash social

Dear all,

I'd like to propose a Friday evening squash social. Next month, Oct 21st.

Venue: Squash courts at SIA Sports Club.

Open to members and non members of the Club. Let's get together and have some fun at the courts followed by dinner.

Time: 6.00pm onwards.

Depending on number of response, I will book the court time accordingly.

Cost: To arrange the dinner catering, I suggest a fee of $12 for non members (which is also needed to cover guest fees) and $8 for members of the Club.

If you cannot stay back for the dinner, then it will be just the Guest fees for non members, and free for members.

Whether you want to play or not, come by and join the social, catch up with old friends ;-)

Let me know please if you can make it, Cheers!

Singapore CIMB Women Open 2011 Semifinals

I've got a recording of the two semifinal matches, taken from the broadcast from Racquet Channel a few weeks ago. Not sure if they have screened the final. If you remember, this was one of the rare occasion where Nicol David registered a loss.

Two matches of contrasting pace, style and feel.

Anyone wants a copy, let me know ;-)

Keep squashing,

Felix
