WSF urged to allow world events in Pakistan Squash Federation
ISLAMABAD: As the squash world joins hands on May 23 in a bid to include the game in the 2016 Olympic Games, the World Squash Federation (WSF) is still undecided on organizing the international tournaments in Pakistan.
The world squash day is being re-branded as “Squash 2016 Day” and the national federations all over the globe have been asked to celebrate the occasion and organize the programmes to highlight the day.
At one hand the world body is trying to make efforts to take the game to Olympics, on the other all efforts on the part of the Pakistan Squash Federation (PSF) to restart the international activities in the country are being given cold shoulder.
Squash is being played in 175 countries with more than 20 million players are involved in the game. Pakistan is one of the leading countries that not only has produced world champions but also played an active role to bring the game to Olympic fold.
However, the double standards being adopted by the WSF is discouraging all the efforts to promote the game in Pakistan – the country of squash lovers.
It has been learnt that the PSF is in constant touch with the world body to allow and support them to host the international tournaments in Pakistan. The WSF has so far shown cold shoulder and is reluctant to support Pakistan mainly because of what they say unfavourable law and order situation in the country.
“We are in constant touch with WSF and making all out efforts to bring the international tournaments back to Pakistan. However, so the international body is reluctant to support us on that front, “ and official of the PSF when contacted said.
The spring season and early summer has always been a busy time for the game activities. Host of the players around the world usually turn up to Pakistan to participate in the events like the Chief of the Army Staff Squash Championship and other international circuit tournaments.
But this year the activities have yet to get a take off in Pakistan – courtesy to the terrorists attack on Sri Lankan cricketers in Lahore.
Unlike cricket, squash is not a team game and as such, the WSF could play a role in bringing the international events back to Pakistan before making endeavours to take it to the Olympics. The countries that have produced champions are being left out of the mainstream. First the WSF and Professional Squash Association (PSA) should extend their support to Pakistan before seeking new horizons for the game.
Junior Gauteng Squash, Johannesburg, South Africa is holding an Inter-Schools Tournament for boys and girls on 23rd May at Randburg Squash Centre, Johannesburg, with the focus being on SQUASH2016 DAY. We hope some of the participants will be representing South Africa in the 2016 Olympics.

The spring season and early summer has always been a busy time for the game activities. Host of the players around the world usually turn up to Pakistan to participate in the events like the Chief of the Army Staff Squash Championship and other international circuit tournaments.
But this year the activities have yet to get a take off in Pakistan – courtesy to the terrorists attack on Sri Lankan cricketers in Lahore.
Unlike cricket, squash is not a team game and as such, the WSF could play a role in bringing the international events back to Pakistan before making endeavours to take it to the Olympics. The countries that have produced champions are being left out of the mainstream. First the WSF and Professional Squash Association (PSA) should extend their support to Pakistan before seeking new horizons for the game.

ReplyDeleteHere in Bloemfontein, South Africa we'll have squash from 7am to 7pm non-stop! There will be singles, doubles and "numbers" played at the same venue in different time slots throughout the day. We have only one dress code; and that's "squash shoes compulsory" but the rest is "optional" It would be interseting to see what creativity comes forward here? Afterwards we'll have a braai to recover!
