CANARY WHARF SQUASH CLASSIC NEWS
ST
JAMES’S PLACE WEALTH MANAGEMENT
ARE THE NEW TITLE SPONSORS OF
CANARY WHARF SQUASH CLASSIC
The
Canary Wharf Classic, London’s most popular squash tournament, looks
forward to a period of renewed growth following the announcement of St.
James’s Place Wealth Management as the new title sponsors.
The 2020 event, rebranded as the St. James’s Place Canary Wharf Classic,
takes place from March 8-13 at the spectacular East Wintergarden venue
at Canary Wharf.
Now in it’s 17th year, the PSA World Tour Gold status tournament
attracts the world’s leading players and continues to sell out every
season. Tickets for this year’s event went on sale in October and were
snapped up within six days.
Tournament Director Tim Garner said: “We are delighted to welcome St.
James’s Place on board as our new title sponsors. It’s wonderful to
partner with such a quality brand as we strive to maintain equally high
standards at the event and we look forward to working together to keep
the event moving forward.
“We
are sure the St. James’s Place team and their guests will enjoy
interacting with the world’s greatest players in a beautiful venue
packed with knowledgeable spectators, who create a brilliant atmosphere
throughout the week.
“With an office next door to the East Wintergarden on Bank Street, it’s
fitting that their company logo will take pride of place in the middle
of the front wall of the glass court.
“Here it will be constantly visible to a huge number of viewers who will
be tuning in to the live TV coverage, online streaming and highlights
packages that will be available in a variety of formats and help cement
their presence on the Wharf.”
Paul Ainslie, Head of Sponsorship at St. James’s Place Wealth
Management, said: “We are delighted to be title sponsor of the 2020
Canary Wharf Squash Classic tournament and support one of the area's
most high-profile events.
“With an office next door to the venue, and a close association with
Canary Wharf, we are excited to be involved with this year’s
tournament.”
