Squash in England

There is a long history of the sport in the country with many highly ranked English players, both in men's and women's squash.

Students at Harrow School in London created it[2] in 1830 when they discovered the potential that a small, punctured rubber ball had for yielding a game where a variety of shots were possible.

[3] Originally played in alleys and courtyards, the first purpose-built squash court was erected in Oxford in 1883.

The PSA World Tour calendar includes many professional tournaments held in England every year.

There are two geographical divions (North and South, formerly known as A and B) and towards the end of the season the top two clubs from each division progress to the semi-finals.
