This year’s 2025 Women’s Masters Team Tournament, held September 19–21, 2025 at Mayfair Parkway in Markham, was once again a highlight on the squash calendar. Bringing together women from across the province, the event showcased competition, camaraderie, and the growing strength of the squash community.
Tournament Chair Tania Kumar shared her reflections on leading the event:
“To be trusted with the planning, organization and execution of the Women’s Masters Team Tournament was such an honour. One of the most popular tournaments which draws so many women players from all over the province at all levels, it was a delight and rewarding to Chair the WMTT 2025. This year saw so many new faces, both seasoned and new to the sport. The tournament is testament to how many women are now taking up this sport. This would not have been possible without the support of donors, sponsors, and volunteers who stepped up to make the weekend a huge success. See you in a year at WMTT 2026!”
