US Squash updates their website

By Greg, on November 28th, 2012

Apologies for all of the broken links from this site to ussquash.com but their update was done without notice and probably without testing. Those of you in the box leagues will find that the layout is in need of serious fine tuning.

I’ve emailed my contact at US Squash and expressed my concerns and am hopeful that the issues will be resolved soon.

The direct link from the mainesquashleague.com’s home page has been fixed.

The current box league is here: http://modules.ussquash.com/ssm/pages/serve.asp?myurl=modules.ussquash.com/ssm/pages/boxleague/BoxLeague.asp%3FboxID=949&currentbox=0

David Palmer clinic a HUGE success!

By Greg, on October 28th, 2012

Based on the steady stream of positive feedback I can safely say that Portland, Maine squash community is STILL buzzing from David Palmer’s visit last Thursday. I am humbled by how well this group effort turned out.

Special thanks go to Scott Kelley, Holly Parker, Dan Sparta, Chip Harlow, the Portland YMCA crew (Hildy, Debbie, Bob and Lura) and all of those participating in the clinic. We also are beyond words for David Palmer and Joe McManus of the Pro Squash Tour for coordinating and helping make this happen!

Somehow I find it very funny that David Palmer is the only one that has his racquet head up! That was one of his key points during the clinic! Keep the racquet head UP!

Our youngest participant, Skyler, showing her awesome forehand rail!

Local legend Gene getting tips on how to serve harder!

Roberto and David laughing after Roberto’s mis-hit winner. Probably the only way to win a point off Palmer for any of us!!!
