We would like to thank England Squash for a great venue, and we would like to thank Jonah, Ian, Mr Carr, Mrs Speed and Nigel  for coming and supporting us today and the school of course. and we hope that Millfield can win it again next year.
 

"I'm really happy to win my third national school final as I feel very proud to be part of Millfield school. I want to thank Jonah and Ian a lot as they were always supporting us. I would like to thanksthe school and all the teachers there they were always here to help me and give me extra lessons because I miss a lot of lessons because of tournaments.

Without Millfield I wouldn't be able to do all these results that I did, they really understand the sport very well and they are always happy and keen to give help to any good sport players. I am really lucky to be in Millfield as I have the most special person for me who is Jonah and that I have teachers who understand that I need to go to tournaments.

I wish that Millfield keep winning it as I will never forget my days there as they were my best days ever."

Wycliffe and Millfield school has won the under 15 again this year, they both won 4/1 but with quite hard matches. That's five in a row for Wycliffe, and six in seven years, making coach Dave Morrish justifiably proud.

"We put strong emphasis on the younger age groups because they are the future - players like Anthony Graham were part of that team and have gone on to become national champion ..."

Semi Finals....

Today the semis finals match started at 10 o'clock. Millfield won the boys and girls under 19 in straight games, Wycliffe had some tough matches against RGS High Wycmobe but they won 4/1, and Newcastle church bt Heathside 4/1 and they had some tough matches as well.

The Wycliffe number one Ben Rodgers had a tough match in the morning and lost to Charlies Wyatt 3/2 in a very long match, I think it was the longest match of the day, but the other Wycliffe players won and they get through to the Final to play with Millfield again.

Millfield's boys and girls had quite easy matches and they get through to the final and are looking for the title for the seventh time in a row.
