Dear Greate Bay Racquet Club members,
I just wanted to let everybody know who was involved with the successful Club Championships, and thanking them for their help, starting with Carl Smallwood,for passing the torch and showing me all the intricacies of running these types of tournaments, along with his input with the handicaps. I would also like to thank Bill Sykes for making all those phone calls to get these matches played in a somewhat timely fashion. It's not an easy task!! Also for his input with the handicaps.
The handicap finals ended up being very close. Thank you also to our President Tom Cetrone for overseeing the tournaments, all the emails, the food menu, and the great job of keeping score of most of the finals matches. Thanks to Mohamed Hassan, and Hale Tendler for keeping score also. Most importantly I want to thank all the players for participating!! Awesome squash!! Congratulations to all the champions! I had a GREATE time and see you next season!
Best regards, Greg DeDomenicis

The club enjoyed some great tournament squash this past weekend. It started Friday night. The club hosted the Singles Handicapped and Men’s A Doubles Championships. In both matches the winner needed to make a comeback, down 2 games to 0. There was a standing room only crowd who enjoyed special player introductions by Gary “Michael Buffer” Massey.
A special thanks goes out to Greate Bay Country Club for providing the food and Mike Bray, Point Liquor for donating the wine. Bill Sykes did a great job organizing the club for the event.
