Charlotte Dougans, PRO for the Amanzimtoti Squash Club, said that it was an awesome weekend filled with top-class squash, great sportsmanship and fantastic vibes.

“Our goal was to give every player a warm welcome and ensure a truly memorable experience for all masters players and spectators. The last time Amanzimtoti hosted an event of this magnitude was in 2016 and I think it’s safe to say we did an outstanding job and made this year’s tournament one to remember,” said Charlotte.

She said that the club is proud that four Amanzimtoti players took part in the tournament, including Reginald Nyandeni, John Bull, Franco Welman and Sean MacDonald. She also thanked the event’s sponsors, whose support helped the club host an unforgettable event.

“Well done to everyone who entered, played, supported, and helped make this tournament such a success,” said Dougans.
