World Record Attempt

Kia ora Katikati Squash Club Supporters

Between 5-6 February 2021, the Brewer Boys, Hayden Revell and as many squashies as possible are going to attempt to set three new World Records:

Longest doubles squash marathon (aiming for 40 hours)

Longest doubles squash rally (aiming for 1h 15m)

Most people involved in a singles squash rally (aiming for 50+ people).

Why?

Our club is in dire need of upgrades and TLC, our next refurbishment project is estimated to cost $60,000.

At this club we've lost weight, gained fitness, learned a new sport, made some of our most fond (and darndest) memories, won championships, met new friends and partners, sang, cried, laughed, bled, sworn, shouted and cheered. All this for the sport we've grown to love.

Looking up at the honours board you'll see so many local heroes have played and worked their heart out for this club. Many non-Katikati members comment on how much of a community our club is and how much they feel welcome - the comradery, whanaungatanga (treating everyone like family), and manaakitanga (generosity) is strong here, and all this has been built from those local heroes including yourselves.

Katikati Squash Club has done so much for us, as well as for many of our members. Now it's our turn to give back. Really give back. If we want this to be a huge success then we need you. All of you.

How can you help?

Save the date. Practice your squash. If you have specialist nutrition, endurance fitness, conditioning, medical and/or mindset knowledge then please contact one of the Brewer boys. Likewise, if you have awesome marketing, graphic design and other promotional skills, please make yourself known to the boys. Spread the word far and wide. Talk about it with your friends and whanau, write about it in your letter to Santa, discuss with work colleagues, dentist, supermarket checkout assistant, and the owners of your local corner dairy, include it in your prayers, and write about it on social media. A donation of any amount to the club in support of this event would also be most welcomed.

We want to fundraise a minimum of five figures.

Let's do it for all those that have been before us, those that are with us now, and all the generations that will soon follow us. In 2020, we won club of the year. In 2021, let's put our club in the world record books.

Kia kaha

Love from the Brewer Boys and honorary Brewer, Hayden Revell.
