Malta started well with a win from Colette Sultana who had the better of Suzanne Hennings (Cayman Islands). Despite a challenging first set Sultana went on to win her first game 3 - 0. Sultana's second match was against Malaysia's Nicol David who won in three straight sets.  David is a former eight times, world champion and is considered to be a legend in the Squash community. Dianne Kellas, had a tough start playing against Australian Christine Nunn, who won the game in three straight sets.  

Daniel Zammit-Lewis started off with a good win against Kale Wilson (Trinidad & Tobago) winning with a final score of 3-0.  A hard fought first set, saw the score of 13-11 being registered, however Wilson, did not show the same determination as that of the first one, enabling Zammit-Lewis to win both sets with a score of 11 - 8. In the second round, Zammit-Lewis had to battle it out against Jamaican Lewis Walters who won in three straight sets.

The Squash team will next be on court on Tuesday 10th April in the doubles competition.
