One of the tournament's court marshals, Johnny Munro, said even more exciting squash action is imminent. Eden will host the 66th Jarvis/Kaplan Cup Interprovincial Squash Tournament from 5 to 10 July - the first time the prestigious event will be held in the region.

Matches will be played in Mossel Bay, Great Brak River and George, with a newly erected all-glass show court at the Mossel Bay Town Hall serving as one of the tournament's highlights.

More than 200 players - including teams from Zimbabwe and Namibia - are expected to compete, and spectators are invited to attend free of charge.
