Invitation To Participate In The World Airline Squash Tournament 2010 Singapore

Dear Friends of the Airline Squash playing fraternity,

I am pleased to attach the Invitation Letter from the Chairman and Organizing Committee of WAST 2010 as well  copies of the WAST 2010 Tournament Rules and Admin Rules.

Please note that you will have to revert to us by email to WAST2010SG@Live.com confirming your team's participation and acceptance of the rules of the tournament.

All current information pertaining to WAST will be put up and updated at the tournament blog at WAST2010SG.blogspot.com.

Secondly, I will be sending some forms for you to reserve your rooms at the Tournament Hotel. Teams are to deal directly with the hotel with regards to accommodation. Please note that the room rates are valid for reservations up till 17 September. Thereafter, the hotel may not guarantee the negotiated rates. Hopefully I will get the forms out to you by next week.

My fingers have been doing much of the training so far. Time to get to the courts for proper training.

Best regards

Jeremy Lee

WAST 2010 Singapore Proposal

Dear fellow Airline Squashers,

Now that the airline industry has recovered from a turbulent 2009, its time to concentrate on more important things like WAST 2010.

We at SIA Group Sports Club would like to do our bit in keeping the spirit of WAST going for the year 2010. At this point in time, we are proposing the following:

• 6 Nights / 7 Days from 17th October to 24th October 2010
• Approximately SGD 700-800 per pax with a minimum of 6 teams participating.
• Rules and regulations to be used for the tournament will be circulated at a later date.
• There has been a lot of new developments in Singapore since we last hosted the WAST in 2003. The biggest buzz right now in the local travel scene is the opening of Resorts World Sentosa. More information can be found at www.rwsentosa.com.

We hope that you will help pass the word around and get back to us within a month so that we can see if we have sufficient interest before we proceed.

In the meantime, all updates will be posted on a blog at WAST2010SG.blogspot.com.

Looking forward to hearing from you soon.
