Harneys Sponsors BVI Professional Squash Association Championships 2018

23/02/2018

BVI Finance member firm Harneys BVI is proud to sponsor the 2018 Professional Squash Association (PSA) World Tour which takes place at the Tortola Sports Club in Pasea Estate from Wednesday, 21 February to Saturday, 24 February 2018.

Professional squash players from the United States, England, the Cayman Islands, Mexico and Guatemala will compete against home-grown BVI talent including local squash players Neville Sorrentino, Dion Anselm, Joe Chapman and Mike Adamson, as well as Harneys’ own, partner Jonathan Addo.

BVI Squash President Mark Chapman stated: “Without doubt, whether you know squash or not, this will truly be amongst the best squash ever seen in the BVI.  Our thanks to our platinum sponsor, Harneys, who have joined us this year and also to Deloitte and National Bank of the Virgin Islands who have been our sponsors since inception in 2012.”

Last year’s runner up Adam Murrills from England, seeded in the No. 2 slot, will be looking to take this year’s trophy but faces tough competition from the No. 1 seed, USA’s Christopher Gordon. Matches will be hotly contested with $5,000 in total prize money up for grabs.

The BVI community is invited to come down to the Tortola Sports club this week to watch the island’s best squash players battle it out against the professionals from the PSA World Tour. As part of this initiative the BVI Squash Association is inviting youth players from the local community to join them for a clinic that will take place at the Tortola Sports Club from 4pm on Saturday 24 February. This will provide the younger players with an opportunity to hone their squash skills and learn from the best.

Harneys is committed to the growth and development of the BVI community through CSR initiatives that focus on enriching educational opportunities for young people, promoting arts and culture, and protecting the environment.
