    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.

  • Nicol Gets RM1.3M Head-Start (NST 16/07/2003)
    16/07/2003 Nicol gets RM1.3m Head-start K.M. Boopathy NICOL David's aspirations of becoming the first senior world squash champion received a headstart when she secured a two-year sponsorship deal worth RM1.3 million by Mulpha International to pursue her goals. The deal is also the biggest individual sponsorship secured by a Malaysian as the quantum was higher than the three-year sponsorship of RM1 million received by Ong Beng Hee from Dunlop last year. However, Nicol will have to earn the sponsorship deal which is performance based and incentives offered if she wins tournaments and improves on her world ranking. The deal is also inclusive of Head equipment and travelling and accomodation cost during tournaments. Nicol, ranked World No 37, is delighted with the challenging arrangement and with sufficient funds already secured, she is looking forward to a successful return to the professional scene after a four-month break from squash last year. "Although it is hard to give a time frame as to when I can give a shot at the world title, but it is my ultimate goal," said Nicol in Subang yesterday. "It depends on how fast I can establish myself in the professional circuit and reduce the gap between me and the top 10 players. "I have been progressing well in tournaments over the last three months and it has been a good experience playing against the top 10 players. "It is looking good for me and if I can improve the way I did in the last three months, you will never know what I can be capable of next year.

  • Michelle Martin, a High Achiever
    Michelle Martin, a High Achiever At the height of a hot summer evening in Australia, squash legend Michelle Martin puts aside time from her hectic personal life - centred round her family and close friends - to field a stream of questions about the highlights of her stellar squash career. She is unassuming but has certainly earned her place in the squash Hall of Fame, with her titles, including three Women’s World Open titles, six British Open crowns, and an Order of Australia amongst other accolades. Michelle Martin created history when she became the first female squash player to win gold medals at the inaugural squash event in the Commonwealth Games in 1998 in Kuala Lumpur Malaysia. Martin is liberal in her humility, but it is sprinkled with a dry humour that sets the mood for an enlivening conversation. The Martin Family of Squashers…. The Martin family is unique as the only Australian squash playing family to produce three such acclaimed and highly internationally ranked siblings. Michelle’s parents constructed the five court Engadin Squash Centre, in Sydney which was attached to the family’s house. Having a court at home meant that the children had the opportunity to learn the sport, meet fellow squashers and practice at virtually any time of the day or night - and the children took full advantage of this. This centre would serve as the hub of activity for the Martin youngsters….. four boys and two girls, and they and their parents who would spend countless hours on or around the court. The children were not coerced into playing the game and were free to participate in other sporting activities at school.
