“I am excited to get back on court and can’t think of a more perfect
place to do so than at Sea Island,” said Hall. “Whether playing doubles

Island offers top-line sporting endeavors for everyone. I am
looking forward to combining my marketing experience and professional
sports background to further elevate the squash program at this
