Right people. I was just thinking there are a few people on Vault 9 that I know play squash, and most likely a few more that play that I don't know. So I was thinking we should have a Vault 9 squash tournament. What I need to know is this...

Who's keen?
When would be a good day? I reckon a Saturday or a Sunday would be best. Feel free to supply dates.
Venues you think would be good? I am thinking maybe Wits or Parkview?

At this point in time I can't offer a prize or anything other than being crowned Vault 9 Squash Champ. If the Administrators don't mind that is...?

So lets see who's keen!!!

Wit's administration being SEOP you'll have to pay R20 and play at the old crappy courts

Parkview nice but might be slightly expensive if you wanna play there, my personal preference is to play there

but other than that I'm keen

when would you prefer to play trout?

pick me pick me

I am allways up for a game...

time ... any weekend will be fun .. I know of a Blackrazor, Sliver and a Zorg that will be keen.

place ... have not been playing that much to know of any real nice placec to play

Yeah I am game, currently sick so not this weekend. Um otherwise I am happy to play at Wits or Parkview.

Parkview is a safe bet...and you get free water with your shower.

sat would do how about sat in two weeks time?

So what do you people think about Sat the 27 May?

Hey sure i will be there

where's the venue? I'll be there... unless we lanning

I will see if I can make it I havent played in a while so it could be fun

27th..sounds like a kosher bagel.
I'll bring my tennis racket in case you all try to own me.
Playing with white dotted black balls...racial equality at last.
Who wants to touch 'em?

Tentatively sounds good.

black wants to touch balls

anyhow where's the venue?

I doubt Wits will be very sporting to let all of use go

no chop face ...
"Playing with white dotted black balls...racial equality at last." you know those ones that are like freeking bouncing balls .. you can hit is go for a enegade and then play your shot ... and wait anothe 5 min before it hits the cround again

eh?

what you both talking about?

k we meet at parkview and I'll bring the steam roller

They are talking about a WHITE dot squash ball. You get a Yellow, Orange, Red and sometimes a double yellow Dot ball. You should know that trout... anyways I am going to try and book 2 courts at Parkview for the 27th.

no black just watns to touch balls


cyber we only play with double yellow now the orange is no more, there is not RED :?

well when I was still playing there were Red dots.

you sure it's not orange... AFAIK the only colours are white, yellow and orange dot balls then you get the bigger greenish balls for the pure beginners!!!

I am pretty sure it was red dots as well. You also get blue squash balls.

I haven't played in ages but maybe I'll come support and drink beer.

kewl. waiting for confirmation on courts being booked by the trout. I haven't played in ages either, so it will be quite entertaining.

You should get V9 to sponsor a trophy

the winner can add a V9 trophy to his signature perhaps

Right guys, so we are thinking of starting things at 11am on Saturday. The cost is R40 per person. Could the people that will be there please PM me, or just post here to say they will be there so that we can work out Rosters. You can also bring some extra cash to support the bar.

R40 for the entire day

I'll book 2 courts but apprently sat morning is pretty empty so it doesn't really matter

Yeah, so we will have the tournament, and you can also play people you feel like playing.

looks like no one is coming

I am in ... allways
just need to spike you r drink .. break your foot ... make you run a marathon and ... give you a old heavy wooden racket to play with then cyfermaster, Black Razor and I will stand a change to beat you

!moer

anyhow here's a map to the place

Click to view attachment

so there are 4 of us so far. we all in the semis...

oh yeah, I am terrible at squash so no need to do any of that stuff Relic.

I shall venture there on saturday...I jus gotta drop/collect the girl from the hairdresser and go shopping...so errr...12 o clock it is?
I'll challenge the victor of the loser round.

if we don't get too many entrants, then we could do this in a round robin format. BR can just play catchup when he arrives then haha.

owned

I am in!

Yay. we have another one. W@RP@T}{ MAY be there also. At this point I think we should go for the round robin option. we can still have a final between the top 2, but we can decide on that later.

ok so here's the list:

ravilj
relic viper
cyfermaster
blackrazor
sliver????
Warpath (maybe)

Due to cyber biaching and moaning fishy will be there too

6 ppl in total I'm sure we can grab two or three courts

rumour has it that Zorg will also be joining us. you also need to add your name to that list trout.

I'm the one writing the list! so I don't have to write my own name

you could write the list and not be competing... so you should include your name for all the other people. Just because someone writes something, doesn't mean they are involved.

It happened yet? Who won?

yeah it happened, and a thanks to all those that joined us. We don't really have a winner as there were some members that were unbeaten. However let us all call Fishfly the champ as he is a league player and would most likely have won out of the people that were there.

Well done trouty.

Nice one trouty

but you didn't have a run against me... so we can be tied atm seen that Ravilj got owned by both of us and relic... urm lets just leave it there

okay trout. it is a tie until we play and determine a winner.

When I get better I'll join you guys if you have another sqush tournament!

I only started playing the beginning of this year, but due to university getting harder I haven't played in a fee months. A friend of mine is teaching me but I'm still not very good, usually play at the squash courts at WITs, actually I've only ever played there.

We will definately have another one. It is more of a fun day, so you don't have to be brilliant to play. I will try and organise another one soon. Just pretty busy with things at the moment. Maybe Fishfly can organise one for us.

Lol good, I'm definitely not a good player.

My friend who was trying to teach me got so tired of me missing when I was serving that he made me serve until I got 10 "correct" serves in a row, and believe me that took me at least 100 serves to get right.

Hope I've imporved since then tho.

I am sure you have improved since then. I am sure some of the guys there will give you a few tips as well.
