MUMBAI: JSW Sports and the Squash Rackets Federation of India (SRFI) have struck a deal that's set to turn India into a squash hotspot, announcing three more international tournaments on home soil. Fresh off the heels of the JSW Indian Open in Mumbai, where Anahat Singh reigned supreme, this partnership is serving up a volley of excitement.

The landmark memorandum of understanding (MoU), signed by SRFI patron  N Ramachandran and Inspire Institute of Sport and JSW Sports founder & director Parth Jindal guarantees three years of world-class squash action, with Mumbai, New Delhi, and Chennai set to host the PSA Squash Copper tournaments.

This isn't just about tournaments; it's about nurturing talent. The partnership will bring in top-tier coaches to work with Indian players, giving them a fighting chance against the world's best as they eye the Los Angeles 2028 Summer Olympics. With six players already in the top 100 world rankings, Indian squash is ready to make a racket.

Parth Jindal, ever the sports enthusiast, declared, "We at JSW Sports are whole-heartedly standing in support of squash as we march on towards the Los Angeles Olympic Games in 2028. The idea is to bring high quality squash to the country as Indian players prepare for the ultimate dream."

N Ramachandran, equally enthusiastic, added, "We are delighted to be partnering with JSW Sports, they have been one of the pioneers in terms of working towards a robust sporting ecosystem in the country. The aim of this initiative is solely to give our Indian squash players a good platform to participate in as they keep one eye on the Olympics. The SRFI  is very excited for what’s in store in the next few years. May this lay the foundations for an Olympic medal in squash for India.”
 

JSW Sports, known for its support of various sporting ventures, including JSW Bengaluru FC and the Delhi Capitals, is now adding squash to its roster. With the Inspire Institute of Sport already making waves, this partnership is set to be a smash hit for Indian squash.
