Women’s World Team Championships Canadian Team Historical Records After a Women's World Invitation tournament was staged in Australia in 1976, the Women's International Squash Rackets Federation was formed to run regular world competitions for individuals and teams. The first team event was staged in 1979 in Birmingham for a trophy donated by two of the great players of women's squash, Heather McKay (Australia) and Janet Shardlow (England). Six countries entered the first event, which was won by Great Britain on the only occasion when the Home Countries didn't enter separately, as they subsequently did. Canada has competed in every tournament, with its best result being 4th in 1979. Canada has already hosted the event four times, in Toronto (1981), Vancouver (1992), Edmonton (2006), and Niagara in 2014.
