    WORLD SQUASH UPDATE Issue 83 November / December 2019 FOR ALL WSF REGIONAL & NATIONAL FEDERATIONS cc: WSF Regional Presidents, WSF Commission Members, Stakeholders, PSA members, SPINs, Media, Accredited Products and Companies CAPE TOWN HOSTS SUCCESSFUL AGM The World Squash Federation Annual General Meeting took place on 6 November in Cape Town, South Africa, hosted by Squash South Africa. The WSF Conference, which preceded the AGM, facilitated informal discussions and featured presentations to update the delegates on key initiatives - including the World Squash Officiating, a joint enterprise between the WSF and Professional Squash Association (PSA) to develop an online platform that will provide National Federations with the tools to develop refereeing in their country. The new initiative is scheduled to go live before the end of the year. Additionally James Sandwith, from BEBRAND, presented the findings of a strategic review commissioned by WSF, with the report now available for all member nations to appraise. The 49th Annual General Meeting, attended by representatives of 24 National Federations, saw delegates agree an amendment to the Articles of Association to reduce the risk of inappropriate leadership behavior and to ensure that delegates in attendance at an AGM have a formal connection with their National Federations. There were no changes to the standard Rules of Squash. However, the Rules of Squash 57 were updated, adding an extra ball rebound resilience at 33 degrees C that will help to ensure that the differential between blue and black balls - and their range of bounce - will be more uniform across the brands that are WSF-approved. The WSF Championship Regulations were updated with respect to player eligibility, the use of random draws and a new timeline and procedure for seeding juniors.

Last December we presented our case to the IOC’s Programme Commission and this day in May we shall do so to the IOC Executive Board in St Petersburg, Russia, along with the other shortlisted sports for the place on the programme of the 2020 Olympic Games. The presentation group will be led by WSF President Ramachandran and features our two world champions Nicol David and Ramy Ashour, whose passion and charisma are sure to impress the IOC President Jacques Rogge and his fourteen IOC Board colleagues. The bid film will be shown – it features the two players and has already been viewed nearly 110,000 times, along with the video giving a snapshot of the 185 countries that play squash (you can see both at http://www.worldsquash.org/ws/?p=10564) – along with a new film, that is being finished featuring innovation, broadcast and presentation. The spoken presentations will be accompanied by over 70 great slides illustrating the points made. What happens next is not confirmed. Originally it was stated that one sport would be recommended for ratification by the full IOC membership but indications now are that a few sports may be put forward for the final vote. That will be made clear on the evening of 29th May and we must hope that we are there for the final decision in Buenos Aires on 8th September.

Fred Reid is a 20 year-old professional squash player. He is a part-time student at Ryerson University. He is currently ranked number 176 in the Professional Squash Association (“PSA”) world rankings. 2 2. A dispute has arisen between Mr. Reid and Squash Canada as a result of: a) The allocation by Squash Canada of “Cards” to Squash Canada athletes pursuant to Sport Canada’s Athlete Assistance Program (“AAP”) which, Mr. Reid alleges, discriminates against him as a student with limited resources; and. b) A decision, notified to Mr. Reid and other athletes representing Canada at the 2010 World University Squash Championships in Melbourne, Australia, that athletes selected by Squash Canada to participate in the Championships would be required to pay an athlete contribution of $1,000. 3. Mr. Reid has already appealed these decisions through the internal appeal process of Squash Canada. An Appeals Officer of Squash Canada concluded that neither of the appeals advanced by Mr. Reid met the enumerated grounds for appeal provided for in s.4 of the Squash Canada Appeals Policy (the “Appeals Policy”) in force at the time. 4. Mr. Reid now brings a further appeal to the Sport Dispute Resolution Centre of Canada pursuant to s.9 of the Appeals Policy which provides that where an Appeals Officer does not allow an appeal, the matter may be referred to the SDRCC.

  • Coach Certification Policies & Procedures
    COACH CERTIFICATION POLICIES & PROCEDURES MAY 31, 2012 STRUCTURE OF THE NEW NCCP: NCCP workshops are designed to meet the needs of all coaches, from the first-time community coach to the head coach of a national team. As a competency based program, certification is now based on what you can do, as opposed to just what you know. This new certification system also differentiates between coaches who are “trained” and “certified”, to ensure coaches are participating in training opportunities as well as being evaluated on what they have learned. As part of the program, all coaches (regardless of sport or context) are trained in ethical decision- making and sport safety.
