Squash names Junior OECS squad

Overseas players Shane Slater from St. Vincent and the Grenadines, and British Virgin Island’s Joe Chapman have been included in an Organisation Of Eastern Caribbean States (OECS) squad for the Caribbean Junior Squash tournament. They join Vincentians Kalina Browne, Sherina Slater, Aiko Roudette, Amber Glasgow, Kevin Hannaway, Diarra Venner, Andrez Bascombe and Kevin Bailey in the line up.{{more}}St. Lucians Melissa Rivers and Dominique Rivers along with Megan Piper complete the outfit. Vincentian James Bentick will coach the squad with St. Lucian Cheryl Renwick manager.

Besides Chapman and Shane, the rest of the party was selected on the basis of their performance in the OECS Junior tournament which ended at the National Squash Centre, Paul’s Avenue last Saturday.

That tournament saw the best Sportsman award going to Kevin Hannaway. He won the Under 13 category. Also outstanding in the championship was Diarra Venner. He won both the Under 17 and 19 titles. He shared the spotlight with Amber Glasgow who accomplished a similar feat in the Girls Under 17 and 19.

Andrez Bascombe took the Under 15 category.

SVG overcame St. Lucia to take the OECS Junior tournament.
