|
|
The 2017 Glen Ragou Memorial Cup event will be held on Saturday 9th September 2017 at Sutton Coldfield Squash Club. We are hoping for 50 players per team to enter. Each player will be paired up against an opponent of a similar standard/age.
Once the numbers reach 100 then the entry will close – so get your entries in early!!
All matches will be PAR scoring best of 5 games. There will be additional North v South competitions in the bar afterwards. This event is intended to be a social but competitive one, with the winning team presented with the Glen Ragou
cup.
A BBQ will be available throughout the day and the matches will be followed with food, drinks and a live band in the evening. Players are encouraged to socialise afterwards and stay over as we all know that Glen liked to play and party
hard!
Apart from a great day of squash and an evening of entertainment all profits will be going to charity.
The cost for entering will be £25 and this will include a competitive game of squash, a unique North or South T-Shirt, food and then entertainment afterwards consisting of party games plus a live band.

| Martin Pearse Retires as Chairman of England Squash Masters! |
|
|
In 2004, Martin Pearse created England Squash Masters. He has been Chairman since 2004 and has driven Masters participation in a number of ways. The regional event has grown from 250 competitors to over 800 under his leadership and is recognised as the largest and most successful Masters circuit in the world. He established the Masters Home Internationals Tournament and has helped to inspire many English Masters Players to International successes.
Martin has also been highly successful as a Masters player too, representing England in countless Home International competitions over many years, including tours to South Africa too, winning many regional Masters events and leading his country successfully as England Captain of his various age groups. Martin has also won international titles/medals at World and European level to show his class on the biggest stages.
England Squash Masters and all players involved will be forever in his debt for the vision and hard work that he has invested over the last 14 years and I'm sure everyone will wish him luck in the future with his next venture - Masters Sport UK.
Succeeding him as Chairman of England Squash Masters is Jonathan Gliddon from Devon, who is establishing himself as a successful Masters player and active committee member, recently Captaining the England Over 45 team to success in the recent Home Internationals in Dublin.
