All squash players and parents to kindly take note

Golf and Rugby 7's make it to the 2016 Olympics on 13 August 09!!!!

A sad day for Squash lovers. But, we must not give up the spirit with which we campaigned for the inclusion of the sport at the London Olympics 2016. The popularity of Squash has really picked up over the last 3-4 years in India. A lot more school kids now know about the game and many also play it. We also see a marked increase in the number of competitive tournaments being played all over our country. There is a growing family of schools in Delhi which have begun to publish Squash as a co-curricular sport in their school brochures.

But....the road to the Olympics still has to be tread by all lovers of this great sport. One day, we must and we will succeed!!
