21-Jul-08:
Vets beat Juniors in World Champs Warmup
Danny Lee reports from St George's Hill

#1  Joe Lee 1-3 Steve Meads                       9/2, 4/9, 6/9, 6/9 (80m)
#2  Adrian Waller 3-0 Steve Richardson              9/6, 9/2, 9/4 (43m)
#3 Alex Ingham 2-3 Danny Meddings    9/2, 0/9, 9/2, 2/9, 3/9 (59m)

England Juniors narrowly lost to a team of experienced former internationals at St George's Hill Rackets and Fitness Club, Weybridge, on Monday night.

The large crowd was treated to a fine display of squash from the youngsters who head to Zurich next week for The World Junior Championships.

First on court was local boy Alex Ingham, the England Junior no3, taking on former World no 13 Danny Meddings.

Ingham took the first game only to lose his initiative as Meddings played near perfect squash to level the match. Once again Ingham drew ahead winning the third game before Meddings regained control to run out a worthy 3-2 winner in 58 minutes.

Adrian Waller, at 6 foot 4 a giant of junior squash, faced Irish International Steve Richardson.

Waller prevailed in a hard fought three games to level the match.

The decider between Walton 18 year old Joe Lee and the evergreen Steve Meads, 38, was a closely contested affair. Lee took the first game using his pace to good advantage but Meads came back to level, reeling in the youngster with clever tactics.

Lee held decent leads in both the third and fourth games and Meads needed all his experience to just sneak home.

Justin Price of England Squash was on hand to present the club with its Silver Charter Award as recognition for the way that squash is promoted and organised at St George's Hill.
