Philadelphia, PA (October 2025) – US Squash has announced that Thos. Moser has joined as a silver sponsor of the 2025 Comcast Business U.S. Open Squash Championships. The renowned furniture maker will provide handcrafted trophies for the men’s and women’s champions of the Open.
“We are proud to be partners with such a distinguished company,” said Kevin Klipstein, US Squash President & CEO. “Thos.

These trophies are fitting awards for a truly special tournament, and we look forward to seeing them presented after an outstanding week of competition.”
Based in Maine, Thos. Moser has crafted distinctive heirloom pieces for patrons, presidents, and popes. The company emphasizes careful material selection and individual craftsmanship; its operation has grown from Thomas Moser and his wife, to sixty craftspeople working out of a 90,000-square-foot workshop in Auburn, Maine.
