Like with some other sports, I never passed - add comma
I'm laughing at the premature congratulations and the reason why. LOL
quite a lot older than me - should be I - we will talk about this rule in class
Twice you start a sentence with But where you could have used the but as a conjunction in a compound sentence - Robert was shouting encouragement from behind the wall, but my feet stayed frozen.
I got my biggest trophy ever, and it has - add comma in a compound sentence :-)
An enjoyable memoir essay, Ine :-) Brooke

Interesting read, Ine. Good for you! Squash is a very high energy game - you did well going in a tournament. I'm not surprised you're proud of your trophy.
This was a nicely written essay. I enjoyed reading it.
Hugs, Avril

Thanks for your time and review. Have a lovely day, Ine. It is a bit like tennis, but in a confined space and faster.
Comment from MelissaBickel
Robina, you were a winner the moment you kept at something. I was always to slow or too big to play sports.. In Junior High I signed up for Tennis and kept up and even beat one of the best players. While I never got to go on Tournaments, I had the satisfaction of showing that I could be good at something regardless of what others felt or said.
Goodonya kiddo!!

Thanks for your time and review. Have a lovely weekend, Ine I might have had similar reasons.
Comment from Doc Holiday
Congratulations on your trophy win!
This is a good piece of writing, concise, keeps the reader interested and has an ending that brings closure, yet offers spectulation about the next action of the main character.
Nice job!

Comment from Melspoems
Lol what a great story Ine. Well done for entering the tournament! And how cool that you get to get a trophy because you were the only female entrant, so even when you lose you win, and all because you tried.
I saw no spags.

Comment from MumEsGirl
Seems like there is more than one style of victory. This was a very well written story with plenty of subtle humour.
I dont think I could ever play squash, it is too fast, badminton and volleyball were my sports, and I played woefully at both

That was a nicely written memoir of your squash playing experience.
...even though a mixed contest... <<-- I think this would sound better as ...even though it was a mixed contest... etc.
What does it say on your trophy?
Cheers!
