【Match Result】The Nippon Club 2024 Winter Tennis Tournament

03 / 16 / 2024

• 

• This year’s Winter Tennis Tournament resumed in January through March with each event fully underway. This is the first time that all events have been held since the pandemic of the new coronavirus. The January and February tournaments were held at the Carrie Rees Indoor Tennis Courts in the Bronx, and the March tournament was held at the USTA National Tennis Center indoor courts in Queens, where the U.S. Open is held every year.

  

  The top finishers of the January Tennis Tournament were awarded trophies and other wonderful prizes from title sponsors Relo Redac, Amnet New York, and Hisamitsu America.

  The top finishers of the February Tennis Tournament were awarded trophies and other wonderful prizes by title sponsors New Yorkers (Mr. Toyokazu Matsumoto) and Shiseido Americas, and sub-sponsor Hisamitsu America.

  The March Tennis Tournament, the last of the season, was a team competition, with a total of 31 teams and 138 players participating in the Open A, Open B, and Women’s events, where fierce competition unfolded. The top place winners in each event received a trophy made of a popular LEGO figure and a wonderful prize from All Nippon Airways, the title sponsor of the event. In the extra naming contest, the top teams received prizes from sponsors ITO EN North America and Minamoto Kitchoan.

  In addition, Hisamitsu America and ITO EN North America sponsored this year’s tournament throughout the season, providing participation prizes to all players.
