New Leader for the Black Knight Series

Following on from the “Club’s Open” held at Top Squash last month it is the resident Head Coach, Nathan Sneyd, who has taken the top position in the Black Knight Series Standings. He racked up his second A Draw win with an impressive display in the final that proved too clinical for runner-up, Mathieu Huin, and now enjoys a 25 point lead above Jérémy Kocan who has risen to 2nd place. Other noteworthy climbers and recent draw winners are Renaud Parentelli of Arelsquash and Germain Gregorious of Squash Club Pétange, who now sit at 5th and 6th positions, having jumped 26 and 29 places respectively!
