🌟 FINAL APPRECIATION POST 🌟

As we head into the finals, the biggest thank you goes to the families who made the Huster Machinetool / Monte Christo Open 2026 possible.

Michael + Kathrin Hüster from Hüster Machinetools, and Clinton + Bianca McElhone from Monte Christo Service Station - you were absolutely magical 🙌

Yes, your financial contribution was incredible. But it’s the heart behind it that made this event special:
Making sure there was milk + hot chocolate for everyone.
Marinating steaks for the prego rolls.
Sitting in the bar all day handing out hoodies + goodies.
Showing up, not just sponsoring.

Last year we hosted the biggest event in Namibian squash history for 2025. This year you helped us pull off another absolute banger.

To the Hüster and McElhone families: Thank you for your support, your time, and your belief in our sport. We couldn’t do this without you ❤️

The Huster Machinetool / Monte Christo Open is for everyone.

Not every player is chasing world champ status. We’ve got divisions for the guys and girls who just want to have fun, meet new people, and learn the ropes of this beautiful game.

That’s our Cheese & Wine Division!

A huge shoutout to Ricardo Abrantes and his team at Coffee & Wine Co for sponsoring every player in this division with a bottle of red wine as a welcome gift.

That kind gesture means so much. It’s gestures like this that help us grow the sport, welcome beginners, and make tournament weekend feel special from the first serve.
