The inaugural Peter Quinn Cup recently took place on the en-tout-cas courts at Kooyong.
Named after one of the Kooyong Foundation’s original founders and chairman of 15+ years, Peter’s efforts were recognised in 2020 when he was awarded an Order of Australia Medal.
The Peter Quinn Cup lined up some of the Kooyong Foundation’s best players, pairing a younger and older player to have some nicely balanced teams.
The event was played in a round robin format with the top two teams of each group through to the Semi Finals.
With the BBQ going and watched on by donors, Foundation board members and of course Peter and Lizzie Quinn, the final was played between Amor Jasika/Philippa Bush and Olivia Quigley/Ymerali Ibraimi.
In an exciting finish to the first event, it was the combination of Quigley/Ibraimi who held their nerve to win the first Peter Quinn Cup!
