A very successful and enjoyable NMSA Closed tournament came to an end on Saturday with 25 matches played during the morning. With player numbers up 40% on last year and competition strong in all 7 sections, the final rounds were as tough as expected.
Winners received prizes from Cell C, Die Oog holiday resort and private sponsors, as well as the prestigious NMSA floating trophies.
The winners and runners-up in each section were:
Here are the full results: NMSA Closed 2016 Final results.
The next stop for the masters players is the World Masters tournament that takes place in September in Johannesburg and then the only remaining event is the doubles IPT in November.
This year we don’t have a singles IPT so we’re making our Northerns Masters Closed a big tournament. The dates are from 18 to 23 July. Play will start on the Monday and the finals will be on the Saturday. Most players will have Friday evening off and either Wednesday (ladies) or Thursday (men).
We’re in the process of negotiating attractive prizes to add to the prestigious trophies that are always awarded at the Closed. We’re asking people or companies to sponsor more prizes, even if only for one section. Please contact us and let us know what you could contribute – a few bottles of wine, vouchers, equipment, clothing or whatever you choose.
We’re specifically looking for a cash sponsor or 2 to contribute enough to enable us to do a “Skaapbraai” at the prize giving function on the Saturday.
Everyone who enters will get a unique long sleeve dry fit warm-up shirt as part of the entry – a practical memento that is worth more than the meagre R180 entry fee!
