After taking second seeds England the full distance on the first day of qualifying, tenth seeds Canada pulled off the first upset in the Hoe Hin White Flower Ointment World Junior Women's Team Squash Championship today (Wednesday) when they beat Germany, the No7 seeds, in Pool B of the biennial World Squash Federation event in Hong Kong.

It was a courageous performance by 15-year-old third string Kimberley Hay that saved England in the decider of the tie against Canada - fighting back from 2/1 down to beat Jackie Moss 10-8, 7-9, 6-9, 9-7, 9-6 in an 82-minute decider.

But the plucky Canadian squad proved their worth today against Germany, recovering from a match down to beat the seventh seeds 2/1 - this time Jackie Moss, from Calgary, clinching the decider by crushing Steffi Muller 9-3, 9-1, 9-0.

Canada will expect to beat 18th seeds Zimbabwe in tomorrow's final qualifying tie - hoping that England will extend their unbeaten record with a victory over Germany to ensure both England and Canada a place in the quarter-final play-offs.

Event favourites Egypt also remain unbeaten after three ties, but dropped matches against both Australia and South Korea in Pool A.  New Zealand earned their third successive 3/0 win today, beating event newcomers China to lead the points table in Pool C.

Hosts Hong Kong, the defending champions, maintained their unbeaten run in Pool D with a convincing 3/0 win over South Africa.  Whilst already assured of a quarter-final place, the fourth seeds take on rivals Malaysia, the fifth seeds, in a bid to finish their qualifying campaign as Pool D champions.
