As part of a brand new series on the website, Squash BC will be releasing a weekly Tournament Roundup to recap events from the past week.
In our first edition of the Tournament Roundup, we are recapping two events that capped off our first month of the 2022-2023 squash season:
- 2022 Early Bird Singles & Doubles (VRC)
