Kenny and Perry Claim National Titles 2004

Number one seeds Liam Kenny and Madeline Perry were crowned Irish National Champions 2004. Kenny saw off the determined challenge of 8 times national champion Derek Ryan. Australian born Kenny showed great character and determination as he gained his second national title.

Perry seemed unstoppable as she outplayed and outclassed number two seed Aisling Blake, retaining her title in straight sets. Perry now ranked at number 17 in the world is out on her own in Irish Squash and surely will add more titles to her name.
Niall Rooney and Laura Mylotte defied the odds in the third place play offs with Rooney defeating the experienced Stevie Richardson in a five set thriller and Mylotte beating Anna McGeever 3-1.

Other Results of note were that of Dara O'Flynn from the host club who finished in a very credible 6th position while Rory Byrne the 15 year old Irish Under19 No.1 finished at no. 12.
