BRIT INSURANCE
CHALLENGE

Ellery Hanley v Alec Stewart

After a brief coaching session with John White,   former Wigan and Great Britain rugby league star, Ellery Hanley, and former England and Surrey CCC cricket captain Alec Stewart played each other in front of an enthusiastic crowd on the tournament court.

The power and brawn of the rugby league man narrowly got the better of England's most capped ever Test cricketer. Hanley won 2-1 but was surprised by how quickly the Surrey man grasped the game.

It was only Stewart's fourth ever appearance on a squash court - and he hadn't picked up a racket since England's tour to Sri Lanka three years ago - but he left vowing to buy himself a racket and play some more.

Ellery has been assisting John with his preparation for tournaments such as the Brit Insurance Super Series Finals, and has been a star attraction at several recent squash events.

League Star sings the praises of Squash
 


WHICH end, John ???


This is EASY, innit !!
