By Jay D. Prince, March 2012
As part of Squash's campaign to become part of the 2020 Olympic Games, the World Squash
Federation (WSF) unveiled www.squash2020.com,
a social media portal enabling the sport's global fan base to learn more about the bid and
show their support for the campaign.
Squash2020.com will feature a wide range of social media tools including Twitter, Facebook
and YouTube, enabling squash fans worldwide to keep up to date with the campaign.
The Squash2020 bid logo was also unveiled with the slogan "Sport At Its Best".
"There are many thousands of squash fans scattered across various social media platforms,"
said WSF President N Ramachandran," and we hope to unite all of them by getting them (and
their friends) to Back the Bid at squash2020.com – throughout the duration of the bid
process until 'judgement day'."
Meanwhile, it was also confirmed that Squash will unveil a bid brochure capturing the
sport's key attributes and outline what the sport can bring to the Olympic Movement with
commentary in French and English.
WSF CEO Andrew Shelley said: "Our bid brochure will seek to capture the features of our
growing global sport, the sheer athleticism of the players, the especially valuable
ability to place glass show courts in locations that show off host cities, our development
credentials, growing broadcast reach and our commitment to push the boundaries of innovation."
