Aitchison College Inter-Club Fundraiser Squash Tournament

Aitchison College Inter-Club Fundraiser Squash Tournament was held from 9^th to 11^th August 2024 at Monnoo Squash Complex, Aitchison College, Lahore. Eight clubs along with the Aitchison Squash Team participated in the tournament. The visiting teams were:

Lahore Gymkhana
Defence Raya Golf & Country Club
EME Defence Club
Shapes Community Club
LDA Sports Complex
AFOHS Club
DeSOM Services Club
XX Defence Club
Aitchison College Lahore

The results of the tournament are as under;-

Winner: DeSOM
Runner up: Aitchison College
3rd Position: Lahore Gymkhana

Most of the matches were quite thrilling, especially the final. This closely contested final was won by DeSOM by 3-1 games

On the whole, it was a great learning experience for AC boys playing against the senior and more experienced players. The audience enjoyed a remarkable display of racket craftsmanship by the players representing different clubs in the tournament. The players aptly depicted their undying reliance, courage, and durability. We should have many more such Fundraiser Tournaments for the underprivileged and needy who have a lot of passion for the game but cannot afford to buy kits and Squash sports gear. Such tournaments motivate many youth players who most certainly can bring laurels nationally and internationally to the country. We sincerely hope that such fundraising contests will not only fulfill the financial needs of many neglected players but also give them opportunities to play the sport of their dreams. Such players can bring great glory and triumph to the country.

Profound thanks to all who made this tournament possible. Kudo to Sheheryer Akram, our current boy, who initiated this brilliant idea of organizing this charity event for such a noble cause.
