18/04/13 Squash Club Nights
Hey Club Members
Squash club nights have been going well on a Thursday night so far since interclub has started. We have been using a card draw system where everyone gets the chance to play a random player on the night. This has thrown up some tough interesting clashes between player and has got everyone mixing together well.
NEXT Thursday is ANZAC Day! So for club night we are running an ANZAC theme!!
Club night is a fun night, for all members. We have a range of players for you to play, from A grade to F grade and everywhere in between... (And also for those who aren't graded at all)
Come down dressed up in your ANZAC gear, ready for some fun. There will be a prize for best dressed on the night!!
Cheers
Steve Martin
Squash Chairperson

GK FINANCIAL SERVICES NORTH ISLAND AGE GROUPS
Due to lower than expected entry numbers, the tournament organising team (in conjunction with Squash New Zealand) has decided to end the tournament on Saturday. While we are aware this may be an inconvenience to travel plans, we felt this was a preferable option to having entire days off for some players during the tournament. We would like to give parents and players as much notice of this as possible to enable alternative plans to be made. We are sorry for this inconvenience, and are assured that Squash New Zealand will review the scheduling for next season.
Kind regards,
Michael Pittams
Squash Director

King dethrones Grinham!
Well done on a fantastic hard fought win Joelle! Good luck for your semi final against Nicol David
Defending champion Rachael Grinham (although it was back in 2009) exited the British Open at the hands of Joelle King in the first upset of the day. The first four games were shared with the girls taking it in turns to paly well, setting up a nailbiting decider which saw the Kiwi take it on her third match ball, having previously saved two. “It was disappointing to lose the first so quickly,” said a delighted winner, “I just told myself that this was a great opportunity in a fantastic venue and I just had to hang in there and try to grind it out.”
Congratulations to Mike Corren and Joelle King winners of the Anglesea Motel Waikato Open 2012!!!

The Reason YOU Should Be at the Club 7.30pm Thursdays…
CLUB NIGHT!!
Come down to the club and have a hit on court, shoot some pool, play some table-tennis, throw some darts and then enjoy a drink in the bar afterwards. Clubnight is our social night of the week and everyone is welcome, including Non-members (for $8.50), so bring your mates down and introduce them to our great game. We can organise games for you with other members of your own ability, so not only will you get good games you might even increase your pool of playing partners. We also aim to have coaching available each week. Club nights will run every Thursday starting from Feb 3rd.
This season we have a keen Squash Committee who will be organizing and running our club events. These include club nights, social events and tournaments. The committee’s goal is to see as many members as possible involved in our club social events and tournaments. YOU can help us achieve this goal simply by attending events and enjoying the game of Squash we all love!!

A Brief History
The Hamilton Squash and Tennis Club as we know it today is an amalgamation of the Hamilton Squash Racquets Club and the Hamilton Tennis Club.
Hamilton Squash Racquets Club began in 1936 as an "all male", one court club in Barton Street. Steady growth saw three courts opened on the present Tristram Street site in 1960. A fourth court was added in 1964, the Gallery Court in 1971 and major alterations and extensions were carried out in 1983 including the addition of the glassback Court. The Club has had the honour of hosting World Events in 1971, 1983 and 1989 as well as many National Championships. We boast Nine National champions, three men and six women, our most famous being Susan Devoy and most recent, Leilani Rorani. Hamilton Tennis Club began in the early 1900's with one singles court and three doubles courts in the vicinity of the St Peters Tennis Club moving to Hinemoa Park in the 1920's. The Club boasted some top tennis players of the day, one being A W Sims who was NZ Singles Champion in 1923. The Tennis Club has been on its present Tristram Street site since 1985 and amalgamated with the Squash Club in 1991. In 1992 both club names were changed to become known as the Hamilton Squash and Tennis Club Inc.
