Secondary Schools Team off to a Flyer in Grafton

The New Zealand Secondary Schools Squash Team has made a good start to its tri-series in New South Wales.

After the recently concluded New Zealand Secondary Schools Championships (held at the Devoy Squash & Fitness Centre), the New Zealand Secondary Schools selectors announced boys' and girls' tournament teams to travel to Grafton, New South Wales to play against New South Wales and Queensland in a tri-series.

The team has run out comfortable victors in its opening day singles encounters with New South Wales and Queensland Secondary Schools selections yesterday - winning both ties 10-0 (results below).  Official photos will be taken today, before the doubles encounters get underway.

Squash New Zealand wishes the team the very best of luck.
