Each year the ODSA holds a tournament throughout the season to crown the ODSA’s top squash players in each division (Open, A, B, C and D) with the winner of the Open division being named the Adrian Dudzicki ODSA Cup Champion.
About Adrian
Adrian Dudzicki was a rising squash star in the Canadian squash scene before he tragically passed away after being struck by a car while cycling to the National Squash Academy the morning of Nov 20, 2013.
Born in Latina, Italy, Adrian Dudzicki, 23, was raised in the Ottawa area where he grew up playing squash at the Ottawa Athletic Club under the direction of squash-professional Johnny Wilson. Wilson said, “he was my student, my friend and in many ways my teacher. He was a true free spirit who lived his life the way he wanted. He was admired. He was loved and will be deeply missed. Adrian will very much want his friends, family and the squash world to celebrate his life and share his philosophy to enjoy life and to enjoy the moment”. (source).
PSA paid tribute to Adrian on this post.
The event was officially renamed in his honour in 2014.
