DU Squash Ladder

Jeff has agreed to post advice, tips, and comments. This means, for the first time ever, that a real squash player will be posting things on du-squash. (Now, won't that will be a refreshing change?)

If you'd like to post your own thoughts, etc., there is now a place to comment on each post. And, if that's not good enough to meet your need for self-actualization, self-expression, or griping, let us know and we'll give you your own blog. (And, of course, we will continue to read your e-mails and, if appropriate or amusing, post them on the site.)

Another way to find folks to play. [Thanks, Nate, for sending this along.] Jim, the organizer, wishes to emphasize that all players, regardless of level, are welcome. In fact, here's exactly what he said: "Be sure to mention to everyone that this is for ALL levels of squash."

Announcing the start of Colorado Squash Box Ladders as of June 1st! Please pass this message on to any and all squash players within Colorado and Wyoming.

For a downloadable PDF file to post at your clubs, first passes at a FAQ and Rules page, please see: [the google groups page.]

The goal is to have about 4-6 boxes of 5 players each for the first 6 week session and grow that to 10+ boxes by the 3rd session in September.

Regards

Jim

From Professor Hughes:

Don't you think your comments about my squash playing are a bit harsh? I'll have you know that one of the best players at DU, Scott (Schultz?) watched Professor Best and I playing last week.

Scott was very, very positive about what he saw: "I was very happy to see that you were both wearing eyeguards."
