Nagico Backs Junior Caribbean Squash
NAGICO Insurances BVI will serve as Title Sponsor of the 2026 Junior Caribbean Squash Championships, contributing $10,000 to bring the event to Tortola from July 10–16. The sponsorship aims to support youth development, showcase local talent, and boost the Virgin Islands’ profile as a host for regional sporting events.
ROAD TOWN, Tortola — NAGICO Insurances BVI has committed $10,000 as Title Sponsor of the 2026 Junior Caribbean Squash Championships, scheduled for July 10 to July 16 at the Tortola Sports Club. The week-long regional tournament will bring junior competitors, coaches, officials and supporters from across the Caribbean to the British Virgin Islands.
NAGICO described the sponsorship as more than financial support, calling it an investment in the growth, confidence and future success of young people throughout the region. "At NAGICO, we believe that investing in young athletes is an investment in the future of our communities," the company said, adding that it is honoured to partner with the BVI Squash Association to deliver a first-class championship while showcasing the hospitality, talent and excellence of the Virgin Islands.
For BVI residents, hosting the Junior Caribbean Squash Championships represents a high-profile opportunity to see the territory welcoming the region’s emerging athletes. The BVI Squash Association has been expanding local programming and competitive opportunities; staging the championship will allow local juniors to test themselves against some of the Caribbean’s best while gaining valuable experience on home courts.
Beyond the competition, organisers expect economic and community benefits. Visiting participants and supporters will use local accommodation, restaurants and services, providing a boost to Tortola’s hospitality sector during the event. The tournament also highlights the BVI’s growing capacity to host regional sporting events, an asset for future bids and tourism promotion.
Youth sports supporters note that events like this promote discipline, teamwork, leadership and healthy lifestyles among young people — outcomes that align with broader community development goals in the territory. NAGICO emphasised its interest in helping to foster those outcomes alongside the BVI Squash Association and other partners.
Organisers say they look forward to welcoming athletes, coaches, officials and supporters for what promises to be an exciting week of competition and camaraderie. Local residents interested in attending or supporting the event should follow announcements from the BVI Squash Association and NAGICO for schedules, ticketing and volunteer opportunities as the July dates approach.
