TICKETS go on
sale this week for the ISS Canary Wharf Squash Classic 2005. The
star-studded event, featuring eight of the game’s star names, will be staged
on the all-glass showcourt at the superb East Wintergarden venue in Jubilee
Place, Canary Wharf, from March 14-18, 2005.
Former world
champion Peter Nicol MBE, a director of co-promoters Eventis Sports
Marketing, said: “We attracted full-house crowds to Canary Wharf earlier
this year in our inaugural tournament and we are confident of doing the same
in 2005.
“We know that
the spectators thoroughly enjoyed the entertainment served up by eight
leading players who were totally committed to providing a spectacular feast
of squash.
“We
experimented with a new style of scoring, playing point-a-rally to nine, and
the feedback from all quarters was extremely positive. Therefore we have
decided to retain this scoring system in 2005 to maintain the tournament’s
unique style and flavour.
“With just a
few shopping days to go before Christmas, I am sure that tickets for the
2005 ISS Canary Wharf Squash Classic will be an extremely popular gift for
any squash fan.”

seen.”
