This month, the PSA World Tour tournament comes to Tring Squash Club, in Hertfordshire – close to Waste King’s headquarters. The winner of the tournament – which runs from 15 to 19 October and is known as the Arnold Homes Tring Open – will receive some £25,000.
Last year’s Arnold Homes Tring Open saw an all-Welsh final, with Caerphilly’s Peter Creed losing to the 2018 Commonwealth Games semi-finalist, Joel Makin. While Makin is absent this year, Creed – seeded 6 – is back. The top seed at Tring this year is England’s Daryl Selby.
Glenn Currie, Waste King’s Managing Director, commented, “As a keen squash player, I’m excited that some of the world’s best professional players will be returning to Tring as part of the PSA World Tour – and I’m delighted that Waste King can help make that happen.”
“Much as I’d have liked to have been playing in the tournament, my primary focus for the last 12 years has been helping to provide a friendly, efficient, cost-effective waste collections, clearance and recycling service which is environmentally friendly,” he added. “Unlike the PSA World Tour, Waste King’s activities may not – yet – span the world but we now operate throughout the UK, working with commercial and domestic customers.
“So, while some of the world’s elite squash players will be playing hard at the tournament in Tring, Waste King will be working hard to clear waste around the country and make it a more environmentally friendly place.”
