THE reputation of Ilkley Squash Club coach Robbie Burnett is certainly growing apace along with the facilities the go ahead club has to offer.

This week Robbie has been coaching the South African Under-17 squad. They arrived on Boxing Day to play in the Scottish Junior Open and then travelled south to take part in the British Open at Sheffield.

The squad of six boys, six girls and their two managers then came to Ilkley to benefit from Kiwi Robbie's coaching skills.

The young players have been hosted by families from Ilkley Squash Club.

A South African school team is to visit Ilkley later in the year for coaching from Robbie.
