Horsham to Host 2025 Victorian Masters Squash Open

Published on 11 July 2025

Horsham will once again be in the spotlight as it prepares to host the 2025 Victorian Masters Squash Open Championships from 25–27 July.

Some of the country’s most skilled players will gather in Horsham for the highly anticipated event. While the majority of players will travel from across Victoria, organisers also expect competitors from New South Wales, South Australia, and the ACT.

Horsham Rural City Mayor Cr Ian Ross said hosting the championships was a great opportunity to showcase the town’s hospitality and sporting infrastructure.

“We’re proud to welcome athletes, officials and supporters to our city for what promises to be a fantastic tournament,” Cr Ross said.

“Horsham has built a strong reputation for delivering successful regional sporting events, and I’m confident this one will be no exception. I encourage visitors to explore our outstanding venues, cafes and local attractions while they’re here.”

The tournament is organised by the Victorian Masters Squash Association (VMSA) and is open to men aged over 35 and women over 30.

VMSA Chair Lou Morsch said the organisation was pleased to return to Horsham for the 2025 Winter Championships.

“Horsham has always delivered a high-quality tournament experience. The facilities are excellent, the local support is strong, and the players really enjoy coming here,” Mr Morsch said.

“We’re looking forward to a big weekend of competition, connection and community—and we thank the Horsham Squash Club and Council for their ongoing efforts to support masters squash in Victoria.”

The tournament is expected to attract hundreds of visitors to Horsham, offering a timely boost to the local economy and tourism sector.
