The PSA Squash Summit, meticulously orchestrated by Adriana Olaya, Head of the PSA Foundation, marked the beginning of a new collaborative era for our sport. No longer are we reminiscing about missed opportunities; instead, we are celebrating a significant leap forward underpinned by the news of our Olympic inclusion. The summit wasn’t just a gathering — it was a testament to the unity and ambition propelling squash into a bright new era.
On reflection, 2023 was a positive year for the sport at an elite level, the PSA continue to make big strides forward and the news of Olympic inclusion for 2028 was a welcome boost.
I came into 2024 full of optimism for the future squash, fresh off the back of one of the most pivotal years the sport has experienced in many years! October 16th, 2023 was a momentous day for everyone involved in the game, and perhaps one of the greatest in our history, where it was finally announced that squash would become an Olympic sport.
In addition to that, earlier in 2023, the PSA announced the investment from Mark Walter, a long-time supporter of squash, and owner of Chelsea and the LA Dodgers, among other sporting entities.
A New Dawn for Squash:
It’s official. Squash has made its grand entrance into the Olympic family. The 16th of October is not just another date on the calendar but a pivotal juncture that sees squash not only recognised for its global appeal but also presented with a golden opportunity for resurgence. The bittersweet memories of the IOC meeting in Singapore in 2005, where Olympic inclusion was almost within our grasp, have been consigned to history. Today, we are on the cusp of a new chapter, ready to redefine squash’s narrative on the world stage.
