Players do well at camp

11 Feb, 2010 02:31 PM
FOUR young players from Moora took part in the WA squash junior talent camp in January.

All four participated well in both training and competition with Kiara Rogers finishing second in her division and Cohen O’Brien finishing third in his division.

Dakota Baldwin-Wright had the opportunity to play against other young people at the same level and ability.

Ethan Baldwin-Wright, one of the youngest participants at the camp, with his willingness to learn new skills, develop his game, and take the competition to his opponent, has caught the eye of WA Squash.

Be Active and WA Squash are working together again this year to continue the development of junior squash in the region.

WA squash will be visiting Moora regularly for junior and senior development clinics and will be selecting a group of young players to take part in the more intensive Midlands junior talent squad.

Be Active school squash clinics will be touring the Shires of Moora and Victoria Plains early in August this year with the inflatable courts to maximise exposure to the game.

Be Active Midlands District co-ordinator, Anna Jamieson said, “Plans are in the pipeline for a Midlands Junior Squash Championship tournament to be held at a central location in the Midlands region; lets hope we can get it here in Moora.

“WA Squash will also be visiting Calingiri on a regular basis based on interest and participation in after-school squash activities delivered by Be Active through term four last year.”

“I personally am very proud of all four who participated in the camp. Their selection by WA Squash in the camp has made all the hard work in 2009 seem even more worthwhile, and I am really looking forward to working with WA Squash and the Moora Squash Club to take it to the next level this year,” Ms Jamieson said.
