JAKARTA (JP): The International Sports Club of Indonesia's (ISCI) squash team took the Bata Cup trophy last Sunday with a 3- 2 victory over the Bimantara team in a two day squash championship at the ISCI courts on Jl. Ciputat Raya, South Jakarta.

After a 2-2 draw, ISCI, a sports club whose about 1,000 members are mostly expatriates, eventually broke the tie when determined Walid Badawi overpowered Bimantara's Irwan, the current Indonesian number one, 3-0.
