Squash players from Zimbabwe will get a chance to rub shoulders with players from the rest of the continent when Zimbabwe hosts the Under-19 All-Africa Games Squash Tournament in Harare from April 5-10.

Matabeleland Squash Association executive committee member responsible for juniors Jonathan Makola yesterday confirmed Zimbabwe will host the tournament during the Easter holidays.

“The Under-19 All-Africa Games competition will be staged in Harare. Players have already started preparing for the competition. We have a good crop of players and we are confident that they can hold their own against players from other countries,” he said.

In the boys’ section the team will include two teams of three players each while four players will make up the girls’ team.
