Abosaide Cadogan
The opening night of the Guyana Squash Association’s (GSA) Toucan Distributors Junior Skill level tournament served off on Monday evening to mark the association’s first junior tournament for 2018 at the Georgetown Club.
In category B Demetrius De Abreu and Ethan Jonas played a thriller. Ethan easily won the first game 11- 6, but Demetrius bounced back to win the second game 11- 7. The third game could have gone either way but Ethan held his nerve to win it 11 – 9. Demetrius showed his fighting qualities by winning the fourth game 11 – 7.
The fifth game went back and forth and at 10 – 8 match ball in favour of Demetrius it seemed all over for Ethan but he showed grit and won the next four points to claim the fifth game 12 – 10.
In category D, Chad De Abreu had a competitive match when he came up against Osmond Mack. Chad won the first game 12 – 10 but then lost the second game 8 – 11 to Osmond. Both the third and fourth games could have been won by either of the two players but Chad managed to win both of them 14 – 12, thus winning the match by three games to one.
