Davnotch pledges continuous support or tennis in Nigeria

Davnotch Nigeria Limited has pledged to ensure the continual development of tennis in Nigeria through the sustenance of its perennial sponsorship of the Davnotch National Open Tennis Championship.

This was revealed by its Managing Director, Emmanuel Ochei, at an interaction to herald the grand finale of the ongoing sixth edition.

According to Ochei who spoke at the Moshood Abiola National Stadium, Abuja, sports development requires consistent investment, innovation, and deliberate planning.

He said: “Future editions of the Davnotch National Open Tennis Championships will feature increased prize money and enhanced initiatives for players.”

He said Davnotch’s association with tennis in Nigeria is replete with high flying achievements, prominent amongst which is breaking of Nigeria’s 37-year jinx of not advancing to the Group 2 level of the Davis Cup, which was achieved recently by besting highly ranked Uzbekistan.

This, according to Ochei, was facilitated by the products from previous editions of the Davnotch National Open Tennis Championship.

He expressed confidence in the tournament providing a veritable fertile ground for the discovery of innate talents, nurturing champions and positioning Nigeria as a leading force in Africa and global Tennis, thereby demonstrating unwavering commitment to excellence. 

He added: “That remains our vision, and we are committed to making it a reality.”
