Jubilant Jansz lands first big squash title at Chichester

In the plate event, for first-match losers, Katica Robertson (handicap 0) played Jonathan Greyling (-4), which meant Greyling had to win four points before he could start scoring and it was the first player to reach 15 to the best of five games.

In a tight first game, Robertson had several game balls before Greyling fought back and took the game. Robertson was not to be denied and she focused hard to take the next three games to run out 3-1 winner of the plate.

In the main event Greg Jansz, who had the highest handicap (-38) in the tournament, played Mat Worden (0). Jansz took a tight first game before Worden replied to level the match.

In the third, Worden forged a 14-6 game ball lead and looked set to go 2-1 ahead. Jansz had other ideas and played complete error-free squash to win the game 15-14.

This proved to be a pivotal point in the match. An exhausted Worden surrendered the fourth and Jansz won his first Russell Hillsdon title in one hour, 20 minutes of gruelling squash. Jansz now holds three club titles.

The next event at the club is the vets’ racketball championships for players over 45.
