Dulwich Squash Club

First game of the Summer League. Dulwich 1 v Dulwich 2. 2nds come out on top via countback but still a good evening entertainment.

Final game before the Christmas break ended with a weakened Dulwich 1 dropping to Bromley Sports Club 3-1. However, Dulwich remain at the top of the league with a 3 point lead over Tunbridge Wells. Dulwich 2 are in 6th place.

Yesterday,Dulwich hosted a Christmas doubles competition. Attended by many, enjoyed by all. After a few hours of entertaining and sometimes frantic. squash, the eventual winners were Roger Merricks and Joe Sibley. They won on a sudden death single point 3rd game against Gordon Harpur and Simon Wilson. Congrats to them and all who took part.

A large home town crowd were treated to a one sided match on Tuesday, as Dulwich 1 hosted Bromley LTC. However, the scoreline didn't do Bromley justice. Much quality squash was on display from both sides. Even Daryl Selby (former World No 9) didn't have things all his own way. The win futher consolidates Dulwich's lead at the tip of the division.

Dulwich 1st team continued their good start to the Winter season with a narrow win away at Beckenham. Will and Gabriel provided an early 0-2 lead. But the home team rallied and defeats for Mahmoud and Tim higher up ment that Dulwich squeaked by on count back . Still, a win is a win. Dulwich maintain 2nd in Division 1, a point behind Tunbridge Wells.

Halloween night at Dulwich produced some top quality squash as the 2nd placed 1st team entertained the league topping T.Wells. A promising and energetic debut for Jordan Warne at No1, just coming up short against a very solid Noah Meredith. And a thrilling 3-2 lose by Mammoud at No4 against James McMeekan had the home crowd a bit edgy. But old reliables Tim Garner and Jim Bristow came through to saved the day against Jolyon Head and Jonny Powell respectively. 2-2 in matches but Dulwich won on count back.

A good start to the 2023/2024 Winter league for Dulwich 1st team. A 3-1 Friday home win against the 2nd team followed by another 3-1 away win at Bexley on Tuesday puts them in 2nd place just behind Tunbridge Wells.

A slightly weakened Dulwich Tandoori 1st team came back from 0-2 down at home to Park Langley 1, to record a fine win.
After Steve and Clive London won the opening two matches v Iain Tennant and Antonio Petronzio, repectively, the ship was steadied by Chris Truswell's victory over Robbie Finch. Then hero of the evening, Ivor Green leveled the match after winning a close 5 setter against Adam Finch. This win was all the more impressive when Ivor revealed that he had already played earlier in the evening, at Wimbledon with friends, then cycled to the club to play again. And all this after giving blood the previous Sunday.
With the stage set at 2-2, it fell to Alex Dakin to complete the Dulwich turn around. And he duly rose to the occasion with a hard hitting display while winning 3-1 over Jame Flanagan. Job done. 3-2 win for Dulwich.
