"One interesting name to emerge from the junior titles was the winner of the 15 years girls age group, Sarah Cardwell, who beat the ACT’s Christine Nunn in the final.
Cardwell is the daughter of Australian squash great Vicki Cardwell, a dominant force on the world and Australian squash scene from the late 1970s to the mid ’90s.
Vicki was the World Open Champion in 1983, claimed the British Open crown on four occasions from 1980-83 and is a member of the Australian Sport Hall of Fame.
Australian squash officials will be hoping Sarah can also make a lasting impression on the world of squash."
