Our fav’ part of the game? The opportunity to play.

14-15 November 2020

Squash Club Cluj-Napoca

We have thought many times if it is a good idea for #ROS8 to take place in 2020, but we don’t forget that our goal is to promote and support the development of this amazing sport, so we understand it’s our duty to take a step forward and offer our friends the opportunity to meet on the squash court this year as well, although it will take place under special safety and security conditions.

We are determined to ensure that everyone taking part in the Romanian Open Squash 2020 will stay healthy and safe.
