The Ladies O40 inter county matches were held on Sunday 16th November in Sussex.
Our team on was Isobel Smith, Louisa Dalwood, Maureen Morrison, Sheila Blake and Laura Taylor and Libby Montgomery. Welcome to Libby who has just returned to squash and is a welcome addition to the squad.
We travelled to down to play our first match against Sussex. The team got off to a great start with a 4-1 victory.
