2010 Western Canadian Doubles Squash Championships

Summary

The 2010 Western Canadian Doubles Squash Championships was, again, hosted at Evergreen Squash Club Nov 19-21, 2010. This year's tournament attracted 100 players, with many participants playing in 2 events. Many thanks to our out-of-town players coming from Toronto, and San Francisco.

Local play started Tuesday; but, Thursday & Friday proved exciting nights of squash with the Howe Sound Brewing Rep pouring local brew, and, some amazing 5 game drag ‘em out first round matches in all events!

As usual, the Mixed Open event was the largest and hardest fought draw, with 16 teams vying for the $1,000 cash prize purse. There were no weak teams in this event - but once the dust had cleared, the final two teams standing were last years talented winners, Jason Giuffre and Ruth Castellino facing off against Justin Todd and Cathy Covernton. It was a great final, especially considering it was the 2nd final of the day for all 4 players! Congrats go to Jason and Ruth who executed some brilliant shots to capture the title, in 4 games, for a 2nd year in a row!

The Women's Open final was also a nail biter, with Ruth Castellino and Tessa Breukels sneeking out a 5 game overpoint win over Cathy Covernton and Frances Frost. In the Men's Open, Justin Todd and Greg Cruikshank were ‛on fire’, as they took apart Mark (Porkchop) Heaney and Jason Giuffre in just 3 games. The Mixed Div 1 was won by new to doubles Peter Lonergan and Sarah Parsons…congrats!
