The event is being held in association with the Sports Committee of the 49th  Independence Anniversary Committee and serves off this Friday from 5:30 p.m. at the  Public Workers Union Building, Tanteen, St. George’s.

For the first time, top players from St. Vincent and the Grenadines will participate in  the annual Independence Tournament, competing in the Men’s and Women’s  singles, Boys’ and Girls’ U19, (Under-19) and U15 events.

Secretary of the GTTA Raymond Roberts says the entry of several top Vincentian  players has stimulated and aroused greater interest in this year’s event, noting the  local players are in training in anticipation of a competitive tournament.

National Men’s singles champion Shannon Doughlin, number two ranked Junior St.  John, U19 Boys singles champion Cedric Marquez and women’s singles champion  Rosemarie Dinnoh-Newland, are all expected to compete in the two-day  championship.
