Author Information
Phil Yarrow has been competing in and winning squash tournaments for almost 30 years. He was a member of the Under-19 Junior Squad in his native England. While attending Nottingham University, he was both the English Universities and British Universities Champion. His school's team won the English Universities Team Championship in all three years of his time there. Phil moved to the U.S. in 1991 and won the National Amateur Championships in 1992 and 1993. At that time he was also building one of the best squash programmes in the country as head squash professional at Chicago's Lakeshore Athletic Club. Aidan Harrison has been heavily involved in squash since he first picked up a racket at the age of eight. Originally from Yorkshire, he captained the England under-19 junior team in 1990, which won the World Junior Team Championships, and he finished third that year in the individual event. Aidan turned professional at age 16 and played on the squash tour for five years, reaching the top 50 in the world rankings.
