Preparations are well advanced
for the Head World Masters Squash Championships in Christchurch. We
can't wait for October to arrive.
"The Squash experience of a lifetime,
awaits you in New Zealand."Kiwi, Ross Norman has fond memories of squash in his home
country. He says:
"I grew up in New Zealand playing
both junior and senior tournaments. We traveled all over the country
and although I didn’t appreciate its natural charm and beauty at the
time, I have grown to fully appreciate everything New Zealand has to
offer.
Besides winning the World Open in 1986,
another title experience which is dear to me, is winning the World
Squash Masters O40 title in Sheffield in 1999. There to my surprise,
I met many old friends, and made new ones. We are very
fortunate in our sport, whereby we can do battleon court and then after,
enjoy the camaraderie that goes with it.
In New Zealand a friendly welcome awaits
you where you will make friendswho will stay with you for a lifetime. It is a
beautiful country, but make sure you leave enough time to truly visit
it. Come to New
Zealand, you will have the squash experience of a
lifetime.
I recommend
it."
