The 2021 Junior Prince Series wrapped up on Sunday 8th August at Squashgym Palmerston North. The very popular J grade series has seen big numbers this year with over 152 players entered from all over the Central region. The 2021 series had 16 rounds at clubs from as far south as Tararua up to North Taranaki and everywhere in between.
