That seems reasonable to me although I would say a max of 2 in any one match would be reasonable as then the majority of the team is made up of bog standard club players and some of them really are bog!

I can't see the problem with playing pofessionals both retired or not in the upper echelons of the county leagues. Surely it helps to improve the level of squash played for everyone and provides some level of kudos to the league as a whole. I also…

Dave Kettle from Dulwich 3rds in div 3 - he has played in positions 4 through to 1 and won 3-0 or 3-1 everytime.

It's always been the same in the 5th as it is in the previous games as far as I can recall over the past 25+ years

Well that's life I guess but we are all talking about the various scoring systems in this thread and my discussion was made slightly in jest which is probably why no one has taken it up as yet. I suspect that people are aleady polarized towards SOS…

My suggestion is to use the old Sever Only Scores system with the exception that when you play a winner you win a point even if you did not serve at the start of the rally. Thus when start the rally and lose it by hitting it out or hitting the tin y…

thanks for the information but I have always viewed Kent Priory Squash very social. As I read it if we want to play hand in, hand out squash it is perfectly acceptable if the teams agree. Ken

I think you are right but I suspect PAR will be adopted by all in due course. I understand what you say with regards to players like Will (and your own Mr London) as I beat Will in a PAR game a week or two after he won the Dulwich annual tournament…

I think that PAR scoring takes the heart and soul out of squash, keeping that statement in mind no matter how many points you go to you can never keep in general the intensity of the game. Once you go down that road some other bright spark comes up…

Here is what the WSF say about PAR 11 being the principle scoring system and the directive on when to adopt the alternate systems: http://www.worldsquash.org.uk/par_11_apr_09.htm
