Sharm El Sheikh To Host 2014 WSF World Cup by Howard Harding
2 May 2014 - The World Squash Federation has awarded the rights to host the 2014 WSF World Cup to Egypt.
The fourth staging of
the unique two-man-one-woman team event will take place at Soho Square
in Sharm El Sheikh from 11-15 December.
It was at the same Sharm El Sheikh venue that the Women's World Championship took place in September 2010.
The location will give
hosts Egypt the chance to defend the 2011 title they won for the first
time in Chennai, India, on home soil.
"The WSF World Cup
features a mixed team format that allows us to showcase the best male
and female players competing together for their country," said WSF
President N Ramachandran. "For us to be able to do so this year in
Egypt, a squash powerhouse, is especially pleasing."
