The day long championship was inaugurated by Vice President Pakistan Tennis Federation Muhammad Khalid Rehmani. 12 male players participated in open singles and doubles events while 5 female players also played exhibition matches.
It is worth mentioning that the equipment of Beach Tennis was sent to Pakistan Tennis Federation last month by International Tennis Federation , sponsored by SANDEVER , most prominent Beach Tennis Equipment Company worldwide. Though Beach Tennis was introduced in country in 2013 during 2nd Karachi Beach Games with locally manufactured rackets and other equipment and remained part of all Beach Games since then held in Karachi, but this time SANDEVER's proper equipment made this event a historic and a significant move towards right direction.
Rehmani thanked ITF & SANDEVER for providing Beach tennis equipments & Super kits to Pakistan Tennis Federation and announced that from now onwards Beach Tennis Events would be integral part of all National or Sindh Ranking tournaments namely, 9th Essa Lab National , 18th Westbury National & 7th Indus Pharma National tennis tournaments , to be held in Karachi in coming months.
