November Letter From WSF Chief Andrew Shelley

November 3, 2012

FROM HEADQUARTERS

World Squash Day took place on 20
October, and is a main feature of
this update.

To the over 40,000 players who
participated, to the professionals
who also took part in Macau and
San Francisco, to all the club
organisers and the venues
themselves; we salute and thank you all.

WSD demonstrated yet again the passion for our
sport right across the globe, from the Pacific, through
Asia and into Africa, Europe and Pan America. Over
seventy countries were involved, from large
established ones through to the very smallest – each
with great enthusiasm, as evidenced by the great
gallery of photographs on www.worldsquashday.com.

Also reported upon in this Update was the recent
WSF AGM & Conference, from which you will read
that Chris Stahl who has stood down as Vice
President, after a wonderfully committed period of
service, has been replaced by Belgian Hugo Hannes.

There is also a new look to several of the WSF
Committee and Commission Chairs and Directors.
They will be forging ahead with plans in the coming
year.

Meanwhile, re-elected President Ramachandran is
devoting himself to doing everything possible
towards a successful outcome for the Olympic bid.
For now, thank you again to everybody who
supported WSD, and your thoughts and suggestions
to Lorraine, Jazz and myself will be very welcome at
any time, as ever.
