🌟 Exciting news for Indian sports! 🌟 Amdavad, India, has been recommended as the host city for the 2030 Commonwealth Games 👏 🏅 At the 2022 Commonwealth Games in Birmingham, Indian squash stars made us proud, Saurav Ghosal clinched bronze in the men’s singles, and then teamed up with Dipika Pallikal Karthik to earn another bronze in the mixed doubles.

2030 Centenary Commonwealth Games Host Recommended as Amdavad, India. The Executive Board of Commonwealth Sport has today confirmed that it will recommend Amdavad, India, as the proposed host city for the 2030 Centenary Commonwealth Games. Amdavad (also known as Ahmedabad, in the Indian state of Gujarat), will now be put forward to the full Commonwealth Sport membership, with the final decision taking place at the Commonwealth Sport General Assembly in Glasgow on 26 November 2025. The recommendation represents a landmark moment for the Commonwealth Sport Movement. The 2030 Games will mark the centenary of the inaugural event held in Hamilton, Canada, in 1930.

Two months after opening Chicago’s first public outdoor squash court in Union Park, the verdict is in: squash outdoors works – and it inspires. As squash fanatic Raghav Rao put it after a dozen sessions: “The court plays like a dream – it even sharpens your indoor game.” “The floor allows play through light rain – squash in the drizzle has never been more fun.” “The location has sparked something bigger: new players, students, professionals, neighbors – many trying the game for the first time.” Beyond performance, the Beacon Court has become a social hub, blending competitive squash with the energy of Chicago’s West Loop. For schools, universities, hotels, and multi-sport venues, Chicago proves what’s possible: ✅ Playable in all weather ✅ Welcoming to both athletes and newcomers ✅ A catalyst for community and wellness Access Courts' mission is simple: make squash accessible by bringing it outdoors. Chicago is just the beginning. Every city deserves a Beacon. 👉 Curious how an outdoor squash court could add value to your campus, resort, or facility?

🌍 This week, members of the PSA's Sustainability Committee attended the Sport Positive Summit in London! As proud signatories of the Sports for Climate Action pledge, we’re always looking to learn from others across the sports industry who are driving meaningful environmental change. The summit brought together professionals from across the sporting world — with inspiring case studies from Sport England, the J.LEAGUE - Japan Professional Football League, and The Professional Cricketers' Association, as well as innovative initiatives such as Eve Joseph’s Clean Water Sports Alliance. Representing the PSA were Stephanie Davidson and Tabitha Walker from our Sustainability Committee, alongside Gabrielle Maguire, who advises the PSA on sustainability matters. Together, they gained valuable insights and inspiration to help strengthen our ongoing efforts. The event concluded with an insightful discussion on sport’s role in the global climate agenda ahead of COP30 Brazil — an exciting moment for our industry. A huge thank you to Claire Poole and the Sport Positive team for organising such a valuable event. #Sustainability #ClimateAction #SportPositive #Squash #PSAWorldTour #GreenSport #COP30

💡 Sustainability at the Professional Squash Association 💡 What does sustainability look like in sport? For us at the PSA Group – and as a proud signatory of the UN Climate Change Sports for Climate Action Framework – 2024 looked like this: ✅ A sell-out Squash Summit, organised by the Squash United Foundation (SUF), that brought together leaders from 23 countries to shape a more inclusive, sustainable future for our game. ✅ 1,934 squash items re-homed through the SUF's ReBound initiative, giving communities from Nigeria to Colombia the chance to play. ✅ A carbon-negative squash court prototype, built from Tesco-supplied waste plastics, proving that sport can lead on innovation. ✅ Small but powerful shifts at HQ, like removing 20+ under-desk bins, which sparked a culture of recycling and behaviour change. ✅ Internal Sustainability Committee established with expert guidance from Gabrielle Maguire, embedding climate action into governance and decision-making. We’re proud of these steps – but prouder still of the momentum they create. The 2025/26 season will be about scaling impact, deepening collaboration, and pushing further on climate action. 🤝 If you’re leading climate efforts in sport or beyond, or want to explore partnership opportunities, we’d love to connect. #Squash #Innovation #SustainabilityInSport #SportsForClimateAction
