Favourites through to Finals

Semi-finals night at South Sound Squash Club, with all four matches - plus two 5/7 playoffs matches for good measure - taking place at the same time was hectic, noisy, and an exciting place to be as the favourites triumphed in all four semi-finals.

In the women's matches defending champions Guyana took the first three ties against T&T in fairly quick time, and that was the end of the match.

Meagan Best got Barbados off to a good start against hosts Cayman, and Alex Jordan edged the second in five to put Barbados within touching distance. Karen Meakins beat long-time rival Marlene West in the top string to put Barbados through to another final, 5-0 in the end.

Jamaica - seeded four due to their sixth-place finish last time but everyone's favourites for the title - quickly despatched Barbados to reach the men's final with individual champion Chris Binnie winning the decisive third rubber, and finished it off 5-0.

Trinidad and Tobago, the other group winners, quickly went 2-0 up against Guyana, and although Sunil Seth pulled one back there was no stopping Josh Pinard in the fourth match as T&T rounded it off 3-1.

There was a Bermuda double in the 5/7 playoffs as the men beat Cayman 3-2 to reach the 5/th/6th final against OECS, and the women beat OECS 5-0 to set up their 5th/6th match against Jamaica.

The finals, 3/4 and 5/6 playoffs are at 09.00 tomorrow, with the final Vets matches at 12.00.

Apologies for the brevity of the report, but six matches at a time proved just impossible ...

Morning report: T&T ease into semis

Trinidad and Tobago made sure of their place in tonight's semi-finals as they took the first three matches against OECS to top the group with three wins out of three. That means that Barbados finish second and will face Jamaica tonight.

The other men's deciding match was much closer with Guyana and Bermuda sharing the first two matches, but Guyana took the next two - both in five games - to lead 3-1 and reach the semis.

Defending champions Guyana completed the women's semi-final lineup as they beat Bermuda 4-1.

In the vets Bermuda beat Guyana 3-2 - despite trailing 1-2 in matches actually played, and Barbados made it four wins out of four with a 5-0 win over Jamaica.

T&T inflicted a first defeat on OECS with a 3-2 win that makes the top of the vets table very tight.

In the afternoon Cayman finished with a 3-2 win over Guyana (1-2 on court), while Barbados came from 1-2 down to beat OECS, maintaining their unbeaten run and setting up a decider with T&T tomorrow.
