The North West Award at Gold level for 2007/08 has been won by Carlisle Squash & Rackets Club. Our thanks to Ronnie Bell the Manager/Head Coach and Trevor Musson the Chair who has been tremendous in developing the programme at the club, especially school-club links.
The England Squash Development Club of the Year Awards are designed to recognise and reward achievement and progress in those clubs that are committed to the England Squash Club Charter, Sport England’s Club Mark.
Sport England’s Club Mark is one of the sports most exciting initiatives, providing opportunities to develop clubs, coaches, volunteers and players. Club Charter has been introduced to ensure England Squash as a governing body have common criteria to ensure good practice runs through all development schemes that provides a focus around which England Squash, Sport England and Sports Coach UK can work together to support good practice in clubs working with children and young people.
The National awards are presented at Bronze, Silver and Gold level with all three winners shortlisted by England Squash for entry into the prestigious Central Council for Physical Recreation (CCPR) Annual Sports Club of the Year Awards.
On Monday 22nd September John Gibson the Area Squash Manager for the North West presented Ronnie Bell with a framed certificate and a cheque for £200 for their outstanding contribution to squash at the club over the past twelve months.
