STOUT & FRANKLIN put on a courageous performance
Posted by Pat Foster on 29-Jun-2011Categories: News Comments: [comments closed]
Christopher Stout and Micah Franklin won over the crowd with their equally courageous performances tonight. Although their performances were equally impressive their styles of play and choice of match tactics differed greatly. Stout elected to force his opponent to play at an up tempo pace by getting on the ball with lighting speed and hitting hard. He opened up the court with some creative shot selections which were pleasing to the jam packed crowd. What separated him from his steady and talented opponent was his determination to retrieve every shot. This win has Christopher playing off for 12th spot tomorrow.
Micah Franklin got a second shot at the innovative Gibraltar number one Anthony Brindle. Brindle took out Franklin 3-0 in the Team Event. Franklin refined his game plan this time around electing to get on the ball early and play forcing length in an attempt to neutralize and contain Brindle, a very talent play maker. Franklin played the match brilliantly pushing it to the fifth and deciding game. Franklin up 6-2 fell victim to an experienced Brindle who dug in to win a couple key points to turn the final game in his favor. Micah will play for 5th place tomorrow.
Juliette Ferrari-Macomb and Laura Robinson ran into some heavy competition today both losing 3-0. Juliette had her chances against her Isle of Man opponent and came very close to extending the match almost taking the third game. Laura had her hands full with her Jersey opponent Kate Cadigan. Kate proved to be too strong in the front of the court.
The final day of singles continues tomorrow.

A Young Squash Team Puts up a Gutsy Performance
Posted by Pat Foster on 26-Jun-2011Categories: News Comments: [comments closed]
BERMUDA vs. ISLE OF WIGHT-Bermuda fell 5-0 against a steady and prepared Isle of Wight squad. Chris Stout was very close to Bermuda’s only win with some brilliant forehand kills. Bermuda rallied and looks to build on their momentum in their upcoming matches.
BERMUDA vs. SHETLAND- Bermuda rebounded with a very closely contested match with Shetland. Althought Bermuda came up short on the 3-2 match score, Juliette Ferrera-Macomb found her stride hitting some remarkable volley drops into the Nic. Team member Micah Franklin on Juliette’s performance “she was ripping nics. Look for good things from her in our upcoming matches.” Micah Franklin’s aggressive play on the left side of the court paid dividends as he cruised to a 3-0 victory. Chris Stout followed suit with a 3-0 victory.
BERMUDA vs. JERSEY- Bermuda played their strongest match yet against the pool favourite and perhaps the tournament favourite, Jersey. Jersey took the match in straight sets, but this young squad’s play could be described as ‘GUTSY.’
Micah Franklin played with confidence and determination and was very close to pushing this match to extra games. Micah volleyed and pressed his opponent, but it wasn’t quite enough for an experienced Jersey number 1 with a deadly forehand flick that would be enviable by non-other than Canadian Great Jonathan Power.
Laura Robinson had moments of brilliance playing as she did during her days at Mount Holyoke College. Laura is getting better and better as this event goes on. Laura on her play “I’m careful not to peak too early. We still have lots of time.”
Juliette Ferrerai-Macomb continues to dazzle her opponents by attacking the nics. She played a tough Jersey opponent, but pushed through some greuling rallies.
Chris Stout- Grit, Determination & Endurance describes Chris’ performance in his 3-2 lose in extra points. The retrieval and shot making by him and his opponent stunned the crowd. Chris managed his attacking nature with some well-timed ‘steady as she goes’ straight play. Chris on his performance ” I’m pretty happy with my performance. It could have gone either way. My opponent was a great competitor and it was a tough and fun match to play. I’d like to dedicate my performance to my Mom and Dad.”
Stay tunned for day II
