Becky Botwright :
European Champion
Malcolm
Willstrop reflects
on the European success of a Pontefract favourite
The field
of the revived European Women's Championship in Bratislava may not
have been the strongest, but Becky's win gave me great pleasure.
She has been part of the Pontefract set-up for four years or so and
she has been a joy to coach, since I know of no player who works
harder or who is more receptive. A fine athlete, I am sure there is
a lot more to come from her.
Universally popular, all Pontefract will share in her win in
Bratislava, as will her friends in Lancashire.
Nor will her popularity decrease after she appears on the front
cover of the next issue of the Squash Player magazine!
