Otago District Master's Champions

The 2016 Otago District Master’s Tournament was hosted by the Taieri Squash Club over the weekend with the 2016 champions decided – Shaun Madden (Cromwell) and Ange Button (Otago).  Defending women’s champion Deb Shirley from Invercargill had to pull out due to injury leaving top seed Ange Button  to battle it out and take the title in four  from club mate, third seed Lyndal Askin.  Shaun Madden won in straight sets over Taieri and 2015 champion Mark Fairweather.

The theme for the tournament was ‘Nursery versus Nursing Home’ so when  a few residents from a local rest home popped in for a look and a bit of socialising, it made for some very interesting and competitive banter...
