The Pakistan Squash Federation (PSF) is set to host the inaugural U23 World Squash Championship in 2025.
Scheduled for April 6-10, 2025, the event will feature both men’s and women’s singles tournaments, each comprising 32 players vying for a share of the $60,000 prize pool and crucial PSA ranking points.
As the first-ever championship of its kind, the tournament aims to provide a vital platform for emerging squash talents worldwide. It is designed to bridge the gap between the World Junior Squash Championships and senior-level competitions, offering young players an opportunity to showcase their skills on an international stage.
William Louis-Marie, CEO of the World Squash Federation (WSF), expressed his enthusiasm for the event, emphasizing its importance to the sport. “The WSF U23 World Squash Championship represents a significant development for the global squash community,” he said. “It offers rising stars from across the globe a chance to compete against the best, while serving as a critical stepping stone between junior and senior squash.”
This championship also marks Pakistan’s return to hosting major squash events after two decades, with the country last hosting a prominent tournament in 2005.
