US Squash has named the roster that would have represented Team USA on the world stage in Australia at the 2020 WSF World Junior Championships, following the recent announcement of the formal cancellation of the event that was previously postponed due to the COVID-19 pandemic. The 2020 World Juniors would have staged the biennial Men’s World Junior Team Championship and annual Men’s and Women’s World Junior Individual Championships. “We have some tremendous young talent coming through in both the boys’ and girls’ teams that keep U.S. squash at the forefront on the international stage,” said Scott Devoy, U.S. Junior Women's Head National Coach. “While this summer didn’t work out the way anyone wanted, we are looking forward to seeing these players given opportunities to challenge the world’s best again soon."
US Squash has recognized Urban Squash Cleveland as the fourth facility–-and the first in the Midwest–-to be accredited as an official US Squash Community Affiliate. “We are uniquely positioned to bring to life a new community of squash in our city, one that is diverse, inclusive and thriving,” said Iago Cornes, Executive Director.
For forty years, the DeRoy Testamentary Foundation has partnered with the game of squash. The foundation has supported the annual DeRoy Juniors, a Midwest junior tournament staple, and sportsmanship with the establishment in 1998 of the DeRoy Sportsmanship Award presented annually by US Squash.
