2009 Kornitzer Squash Tournament review

This year's 11^th annual Kornitzer Memorial Squash tournament was held at Club CDL on the weekend of Feb. 13 to 15, 2009. 65 players from Montreal, Quebec City and Gatineau participated. All proceeds from the tournament were donated to The Quebec Heart and Stroke Foundation.

The draws were divided into Men's A, B, C, D and Women's A. Friday night pizza was sponsored by 21^st CENTURY FOOD. A full day of squash on Saturday was followed by a pasta dinner dance with DJ. Semi-finals and finals played out in the early afternoon on Sunday. Continental breakfasts were provided to players and volunteers on Saturday and Sunday mornings.

Thanks to Dave Runnings for doing his usual flair creating an excellent and well-organized draw. The professionalism of the tournament was bumped up a few notches by the great turnout of the certified referees from Squash Quebec who volunteered their time (Barry Faguy, Gio Picollino, Pierre Cardinal, Eric Plamondon, Gerry Poole, Paul Gagnon, and Dave Runnings). The tournament was once again sponsored by Black Knight Canada under the "Black Knight Circuit". Restaurant Casa Cacciatorre, CLUB CDL and BK provided the prizes.

Thanks to the "new" CLUB CDL administration (Jason Prizant, Eric Newton, Josh Schwartz and all the reception staff) who put out the red-carpet welcome mat to all tournament participants, and helped make this year's tournament a great success. A special thank you to the volunteers (Laurie Lanfer, Ian Starr, Dave Runnings, Mary-Therese Lai-Tung, Rainer Ullman, Gary Grant, and Rob Fuchs) who helped manage a very-well organized and smoothly run tournament.

Squash enthusiasts assembled, on March 10th, for the 3rd Annual Robert Kornitzer tournament held at the Nautilus Plus Cote de Liesse Club. This tournament is held in the honor of Robert Kornitzer, a noted squash and racketball player at the club. Part of the proceeds go to the Heart & Stroke Foundation.

The action was very tough on the court, and even better off the court as the Saturday night big band party played until 2AM and an Air Canada flight to anywhere in the world was given away (I won't tell you who won, you'll have to ask). On the court, Montreal native and Vermont resident Peter Schulman, scored his first tournament victory by beating Dan Dorsey 3-2 in the hotly contested final. There was absolutely, positively, not ever one bit of arguing with the referee.

The organizing committee and Côte-de-Liesse pro Alan Taylor congratulate all the players for participating and look forward to more good times next year. Lastly, the trophy for the winner is the size of a fire hydrant, so for any of you who want their name engraved on a REAL trophy, come and play next year.

Dan "that was a let!" Dorsey
