This indeed is a commendable gesture towards saving our sports at the grassroots”, said Onigbinde.

“What Amb Romoke Ayinde is doing is an intervention that deserves international recognition.  I’m not a sports person before, but since I tried my hands on squash, I have found it to be a great game which I always love to play leisurely despite of my busy schedule, because it has given me greater self-confidence and self-esteem”, said – Dr Festus Adedayo, whose son of Katrine International School also took part in the tourney.

Amb. Romoke Ayinde in her speech during the closing ceremony thanked all and sundry that have contributed to the success of the anniversary celebration, while pledging to continue in taking squash awareness campaign to secondary schools and tertiary institution in both state and national level so as to erase the wrong notion that the game in exclusively for the rich.

“We shall continue to often organize more of this competition not only among professionals but within secondary schools and tertiary institutions, besides, tournament aspect of the game of squash is also being played for health reasons, a round of game of squash daily will increase life span of an individual, provided other nutritional rules are being observed”, Kayrom Lee boss noted.
