Namibian Open Squash Tournament Saturday 19th of August 2006 Buccaneers squash club hosted the MultiChoice Namibian Open Tourna-ment over the weekend of 11th to 13th August. Thanks is conveyed to all those involved in particular MultiChoice Namibia and Namsov for their gene-rous sponsorship, which attracted a good entry to ensure a successful and exciting tournament.
Play was of a high standard with all vying for the lucrative top cash prizes. Eventually it was narrowed down to an excellent Men’s final between Lazerus Chilifwa of S.A. and our own Marco Becker (currently studying in S.A.). Lazerus, who’s been playing in the top squash circles quite a bit longer than Marco, skills and experience came to fore with some incredible play to take the final.
