There was no complacency during the final test, with the series won, Australia finished with an 11/3 match score in the final test. Sue and Anne went through undefeated.
As always, there was fantastic competitiveness and comradery between the two nations. We now look forward to playing the NZ Masters Individual Championships.

Di has previously served on the WAMS committee, as well as 3 AMSA Perth Tournament committees, appearing in numerous “wrinklies revue’s”. She has competed at 3 World Masters Squash Tournaments (successfully) and in 1 World Masters Games representing WA/Australia. She is also a long time financial sponsor of WAMS.
We couldn’t think of anyone more deserving of this award – Di consistently promotes WA Masters Squash – every new player at Pennants or Clubs get asked “do you play Masters, do you want to play Masters? – you should, it’s great fun!”
She thoroughly deserves this award ‘Services to Masters Squash 2019’. Well done Di
