  • Lenny Hutton

  • A Stroud member Lenny Hutton has passed away after a terrible illness.  Lenny who played league squash for over 30 years was a Gloucestershire Police Officer until his retirement 17 years ago.  He then worked for Stroud Council promoting youth sports events.  He is particularly remembered for the "Kapers" childrens activities in the school holidays attended by thousands of children.  He has also been a keen supporter of Forest Green Rovers football.  Lenny had a fantastic sense of humour and was greatly loved by his many friends in Stroud and throughout the Gloucestershire sporting community. Our hearts go out to his wife Jane and their family. [Geoff Clark]

From England Squash : Many people in squash are aware of the threat of the closure of courts – we’ve been working hard on this at England Squash for some time, opposing closures and conversions wherever we can. This threat is wider than squash, however. We believe there’s a problem for sports facilities generally in the lack of protection offered by planning laws. That’s why we’ve teamed up with the Daily Telegraph to highlight this issue – a series of articles have started to appear in the newspaper and the telegraph website demonstrating the problem.

What do you think is the best number of teams per division in the winter leagues ? - you can let me know via the contact us page on the website.

Have your say ! add your comments to the discussion about how to organise your league in the future.
