Squash ace stars for Sussex

BEXHILL High student Helen Maddams played an integral role in helping Sussex qualify for the next round of the under-13 girls' Inter-Counties Squash Championship.

The 12-year-old Cooden Beach Squash Club prospect, playing at number three on her debut in the three-strong team, strolled through both her matches 3-0 to hand her county wins over opponents Norfolk and Essex at Norwich on Sunday.

Helen, a talented all-rounder in the sporting arena, has been playing squash for four years and is expected to retain her place for stage two of the competition at a venue and against opposition to be announced in February.
