Wed 10 Dec 2014MINISQUASH Primary Schools Event - 10 Dec 2014
FIRST EVER in Lancashire and the North West of England!
On Wednesday 10th December “Leyland Lions Junior Squash & Racketball Club” held a “South Ribble Primary Schools Minisquash Event” at Leyland Leisure Centre. Great Success story thanks to so many!
It’s the first time that a Squash & Racketball Club in Lancashire and the North West of England has held such an event!
The four primary schools - Leyland Methodist, St Catherine’s, Lostock Hall Community and Woodlea took part. Four children (2 girls/2 boys) represented their schools.Quotes from the schools:
- “The Kids loved it”.
- 8 year old boy “I really enjoyed it. The afternoon was great and lots of FUN”.
My thanks to “HAYS Education” Preston for sponsoring the event.
Minisquash (5-10 year olds) offers an ideal introduction to squash. This exciting game fits the needs of younger children and is played using specialised equipment designed to help children achieve maximum success.
HAPPY CHRISTMAS and NEW YEAR! -
