On Friday, January 30, the Atlanta Tornados host the defending NSL champions, the Philadelphia Lightning, for the official 2026 season opener.

The Tornados will be led by PSA legend Miguel Rodriguez (World #24), while World #7 Marwan El Shorbagy heads up the Lightning roster. Both teams will have added fresh firepower following the NSL draft in Cleveland next weekend (Jan 17), where our Tornados secured three of the top 13 picks. We are thrilled to showcase the new talent that will be joining our team.

Please join us at the club on Friday afternoon for a player meet and greet before the action begins. The main match is scheduled to start at 6:30pm. We want the club to be loud and proud as we support our team!

Admission is complementary. Junior players are encouraged to bring their parents, and parents, bring your kids! We will have fun giveaways and a player autograph session. Our goal is to fill the stands with over 250 fans, so come out and experience the high-octane action of the National Squash League.
