As I mentioned in my last blog – my life has been somewhat taken over by a small squash tournament at The Park Nottingham!

The tournament started earlier today – involves 20 European Teams (12 men and 8 women) competing for the Titles “European Club Champions 2014″. You can follow it if you are interested here.

Today we have seen the World Number two in action on our show court – Nick Matthew played at 9am today and beat Lewis Walters the Air-IT Nottingham number one player. But we have also had Laura Massaro in the club – she is world raked two as well – she plays tomorrow. This afternoon Simon Rosner, WR12 played and won. This is world class squash – all in The Park.

If you’re local and can get down – do come and see us. It’s free entry!

Squash really does deserve a place in the Olympics 2020 – and we are seeing great publicity. Laura was filmed this afternoon for the BBC as you can see.

The Nottingham boys held their own today – their first match was drawn 2-2. The ladies fared less well losing 3-0 – boys play four matches, girl three.

Onwards and upwards !!
