The HAC (Honourable Artillery Company) Squash Club will be visiting Malta this weekend to take part in a series of squash matches and training sessions organised by Squash Academy coach Paul Lake.

All sessions will take place at the Marsa Sports Club and will involve several players from the club.

Touring sides are always a welcome sight as this gives local players a chance to train and compete with overseas players.

An Invitation Challenge Tournament takes place today from 1pm and a Team Challenge match tomorrow from 10.30am.

Spectators are welcome to attend both events and are invited to come along and support their local players.
