Keeping Fit
The well known Rotorua All Black, Bill Gray, says that squash is just the game for footballers, especially for the backs. "It quickens the reflexes, keeps the whole body really fit — the eyes, arms and legs, and is terrific for wind," he says. "For the last two months, two games of squash a week is all I've been training on. Dinny Mohi, Graham Whyte and most of the leading Rotorua representative players come down. Jimmy Maniapoto, the junior and colts All Black, keeps fit with squash too, and many other provincial players in other centres are using the game to keep in trim." Graham Whyte is so keen on the game that he went straight back to Rotorua after playing in the Wai-kato-Bay of Plenty representative match to compete in a squash tournament at Rotorua.
