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. -

Tribal Belt and the Defence of British India: a Critical Appraisal of British Strategy in the North-West Frontier During the First World War
Tribal Belt and the Defence of British India: A Critical Appraisal of British Strategy in the North-West Frontier during the First World War Dr. Salman Bangash. “History is certainly being made in this corridor…and I am sure a great deal more history is going to be made there in the near future - perhaps in a rather unpleasant way, but anyway in an important way.” (Arnold J. Toynbee )1 Introduction No region of the British Empire afforded more grandeur, influence, power, status and prestige then India. The British prominence in India was unique and incomparable. For this very reason the security and safety of India became the prime objective of British Imperial foreign policy in India. India was the symbol of appealing, thriving, profitable and advantageous British Imperial greatness. Closely interlinked with the question of the imperial defence of India was the tribal belt2 or tribal areas in the North-West Frontier region inhabitant by Pashtun ethnic groups. The area was defined topographically as a strategic zone of defence, which had substantial geo-political and geo-strategic significance for the British rule in India. Tribal areas posed a complicated and multifaceted defence problem for the British in India during the nineteenth and twentieth centuries. Peace, stability and effective control in this sensitive area was vital and indispensable for the security and defence of India. Assistant Professor, Department of History, University of Peshawar, Pakistan 1 Arnold J.

For an Army to fight a campaign successfully, many different aspects of military activity need to be in place. The soldiers who do the actual fighting need to be properly trained, equipped, supplied, and importantly for the individual soldiers, they need to know that in the event of them being wounded (which is more likely than not), they will receive the best medical treatment possible. In South East Asia, more soldiers fell ill than were wounded in battle, and this fact severely affected the ability of the Army to sustain any unit in the front line for any significant period. -

A Case Study of the Bazaar Valley Expedition in Khyber Agency 1908
Journal of Law and Society Law College Vol. 40, No. 55 & 56 University of Peshawar January & July, 2010 issues THE BRITISH MILITARY EXPEDITIONS IN THE TRIBAL AREAS: A CASE STUDY OF THE BAZAAR VALLEY EXPEDITION IN KHYBER AGENCY 1908 Javed Iqbal*, Salman Bangash**1, Introduction In 1897, the British had to face a formidable rising on the North West Frontier, which they claim was mainly caused by the activities of ‘Mullahs of an extremely ignorant type’ who dominated the tribal belt, supported by many disciples who met at the country shrines and were centre to “all intrigues and evils”, inciting the tribesmen constantly against the British. This Uprising spread over the whole of the tribal belt and it also affected the Khyber Agency which was the nearest tribal agency to Peshawar and had great importance due to the location of the Khyber Pass which was the easiest and the shortest route to Afghanistan; a country that had a big role in shaping events in the tribal areas on the North Western Frontier of British Indian Empire. The Khyber Pass remained closed for traffic throughout the troubled years of 1897 and 1898. The Pass was reopened for caravan traffic on March 7, 1898 but the rising highlighted the importance of the Khyber Pass as the chief line of communication and trade route. The British realized that they had to give due consideration to the maintenance of the Khyber Pass for safe communication and trade in any future reconstruction of the Frontier policy. One important offshoot of the Frontier Uprising was the Tirah Valley expedition during which the British tried to punish those Afridi tribes who had been responsible for the mischief. -

Terrorism, Islamization, and Human Rights: How Post 9/11 Pakistani English Literature Speaks to the World Abstract The start of the twenty-first century has witnessed a simultaneous rise of three areas of scholarly interest: 9/11 literature, human rights discourse, and War on Terror studies. The resulting intersections between literature and human rights, foregrounded by an overarching narrative of terror, have led to a new area of interdisciplinary enquiry broadly classed under human rights literature, at the point of the convergence of which lies the idea of human empathy. -

Maria Toorpakai Wazir
Maria Toorpakai Wazir L’atleta che sfida i talebani La chiamavano Changez Khan, perché aveva la tempra del guerriero tartaro Gengis Khan, ma quel nome conteneva un segreto. Un’identità inventata per liberare l’identità autentica. Maria Toorpakai Wazir, pakistana, top-player di squash in un paese in cui le donne non mostrano neanche il volto, è cresciuta fingendo di essere un uomo. Una storia che sembra uscita dalla penna di Tarah Ben Jelloun, lo scrittore marocchino che in Creatura di sabbia ha ritratto il personaggio di una bambina costretta a travestirsi da maschio, e che invece è diventata la ragione di una missione: generare dieci, cento, mille Maria. Un padre controcorrente Il Sud Waziristan, al confine tra Pakistan e Afghanistan, è terra di talebani. Qualcuno l’ha definito il posto più pericoloso del mondo; le ragazze non vanno a scuola e gli sport femminili sono considerati peccaminosi. È qui che Maria nasce nel 1990 da un capo tribù controcorrente, che sostiene le pari opportunità di genere. Istruzione, salute, indipendenza anche per le donne. Diritti negati dalla legge, che Shamsul Qayyum Wazir riconosce invece prima alla moglie, poi alle due figlie. Lascia loro la scelta di indossare o meno il burqa; poco importa che la comunità s’indigni e che la sua stessa famiglia d’origine lo rinneghi dichiarandolo pazzo. Solo dopo aver subito minacce di morte Shams abbandona con i propri cari il Sud Waziristan aprendo Il padre di Maria mentre predica la parità tra i sessi (© mariatoorpakai.org) le porte della sua nuova casa ai libri. Maria studia ma è insofferente. -
