Squash Olympic Bid

supporting the aim of achieving a place on the Paris 2024 programme

THE WORLD OF SQUASH SUPPORTS OUR OLYMPIC GAMES BID

Squash is hoping to achieve nomination and then acceptance for a place on the 2024 Paris Olympic Games programme.

The World Squash Federation (WSF) and Professional Squash Association (PSA) have a joint commitment on behalf of squash, which is to use the opportunity that the hosts of the Olympic Games in Paris 2024 and Los Angeles 2028 have, to nominate sports.

To achieve this, demands the most professional possible bid in terms of strategy and execution, and equally importantly the support of the entire global squash community.

Everybody from club players to centre operators, elite players, national and international federations stand to benefit from funding, promotional and general growth opportunities that would result if squash gets into the Olympics; and we know we have the total backing from everybody within our sport, and great support from those outside too.

Appreciating that making a comprehensive bid is expensive, we are very grateful for funding received to help our push, and we are delighted to acknowledge this invaluable support here.
