There will be a 10-minute time limited to each pair of players on court, straight into warming up and then playing with no limit on where the score ends up, once the 10 minutes has been reached the alarm will sound and the next 2 players can go on court to play there 10 minutes.

Amsterdam Classic 2024

Hurty with his Amsterdam Classic 2024 Runners up Trophy

As a few of you know that Hurty (Me, yours truly) attended yet another of Joe Magor organised squash competition last weekend, this time on the outskirts of Amsterdam @ the Frans Otten Stadion (yes that is spelt right) a truly fantastic facility with 21 squash courts, 6 indoor Padel courts, 5 indoor tennis courts and 15 outdoor tennis courts.

With over 90 players from across the UK and Holland entered this was going to be Hurtys biggest challenge to reach the final and play on a ¾ glass court, a strange configuration with a white solid front wall, tinted glass side walls and clear glass back wall.

Hurty, (Me) did make the final winning 5 of my 6 games, but was beaten firstly by the court (horrible, black ball tinted glass, not a great combination) and then by Jack Murgatroyd 2-0

Great weekend and I totally recommend these types of 1 day competition to all MSC players, they are great fun, you’re playing other players at your level, and it will improve your squash, so keep an eye on the notice board as we advertise all the 1 day tournaments organised by Joe Magor or just ask me and I will happily talk you though a typical 1 day competition.
