The Marsa Squash Section beats the visiting Polish team in the second fixture which produced some interesting and entertaining matches.

Several of the matches 'went the distance' with the winner decided in the 5th & final set.

Phillip Bugeja, one of Malta's finest players, produced a brilliant performance against the visiting Polish team's number one Tomasz Abramowski and showed that he still has the 'touch and control' to compete with the best. Bugeja won a close-fought match in front of a good crowd 3-0.

Malta's youngest talent Colette Sultana fought extremely well against Marek Kurylowicz before losing 3-2 in a 60 minute match, a fantastic performance for a 12 year old athlete.

The final result was a hard-fought 9-6 for the Marsa Squash Section Team.
