The Olympic Games Bid: A Writer's View
from Andrew Shelley, Chief Executive, World Squash Federation


March 20, 2012

Dear All,

Our Olympic bid continues to gain momentum in a number of ways, and sometimes it includes support from respected outsiders that help us too.

Alan Hubbard is just such a journalist. Howard Harding (our World Squash Media Director) and myself got together with him a short while ago, and he has since written a few really supportive articles.

The latest has appeared in Around The Rings, an influential website viewed by everybody with Olympic connections, and details our case for inclusion really well contrasting with other sports and focusing upon the Nick Matthew / James Willstrop rivalry. If you want to remind yourself of some of the reasons why squash would be a good addition to the Olympic Games programme do read it. You can view it at: http://squash2020.com/latest-news/?tw_p=twt 

While writing, if you have a website or facebook page it would really help us to show that the whole sport is behind the bid if you could add the bid logo (attached) to your website, and link it to www.squash2020.com

Thank you very much indeed.

Regards

Andrew
