Westco Marketing Squash: A History of the Game Written by James Zug Published by Scribner (September 2003) ISBN 0743229908 Price $32.00 Buy from amazon.co.uk Customer Reviews The title of the book is misleading - it is purely about North American squash history.I was expecting write ups on recognized international greats and found nothing. This book, as the forward by the late George Plimpton indicates, is the first comprehensive history of American squash, and it is a hard act to follow. As such it is pretty much assured "instant classic" status.Problems with the book: 1) The title does not indicate that it is a history of squash in America. Except for the very early history of squash in England, do not expect to find much outside the U.S. and Canada. 2) It is written for the squash player, and will be difficult to read for outsidersexcept perhaps as a reference.Good things about the book: Everything else.

The decision comes after a review of proposals on the addition of new sports, delivered by the Olympic Programme Commission to the IOC Executive Board. In a letter to World Squash Federation (WSF) President Susie Simcock, IOC President Dr. Jacques Rogge states that the principles of the Olympic Programme indicate that any new sports which are to be considered for inclusion must bring additional value to the Programme. Statistics reviewed by the IOC on federation affiliation, nations competing in major events and broadcast and press coverage of major events for most of the sports bidding for a place did not indicate a higher level of global participation and interest than sports currently on the Programme and could not be considered to bring additional value.

The committee decided that Triathlon and Taekwondo, sports that were included in this year's Sydney Olympics for the first time, will be retained - but rejected any additions. Ten sports, including Squash, have been campaigning for inclusion in the Athens Olympics for over three years but there has recently been doubt that the Organising Committee in Athens could cope with any additions. The IOC has also ruled that a strict maximum of 10,000 athletes will apply to the Athens Games and this will involve a reduction on the participation in Sydney. WALBUTTON REMARKS Ted Wallbutton, WSF Chief Executive, commented: "Although we have been anticipating this result for some time, it has still come as a bitter disappointment to us.

The Australian Olympic Committee, however, does not subscribe to the theory. Nor does it indulge blind faith. Its prediction Australia will land 14 gold, 20 silver and 16 bronze medals is based on the 2003 world championships results, a benchmark exercise which proved highly accurate in 2000. It forecast 59 medals, the Australians collected 58. Australia's gold medals in Sydney were spread over 11 sports, headed by swimming with five and sailing with two. The Athens forecast has Australia triumphing in nine sports, with swimming (4), rowing (2) and triathlon (2) touted as best.

Australia finished fourth on the 2000 medal table behind superpowers US, Russia and China with 16 gold, 25 silver and 17 bronze medals - the best return in Australian Olympic history. But, with the exception of the mighty Americans - led by Marion Jones at Homebush Bay - Games hosts traditionally struggle four years later. Spain, who claimed 13 gold medals in Barcelona in 1992, won just five in Atlanta. But the Australian Olympic Committee predicts Australia will land 14 gold, 20 silver and 16 bronze medals. This view is based on the 2003 world championships results - an accurate yardstick in 2000. It forecast 59 medals; the Australians collected 58. The projected haul of 50 medals would be Australia's best overseas harvest, beating the 41 in Atlanta. Based on world championship results, Australia would finish fifth behind Russia, the US, China and Germany.

THE HISTORY OF RACQUETBALL Racquetball a mere youngster compared to tennis, squash and other racquet sports has encountered a myriad of changes in its short 26-year history. Simple wooden racquets have given way to state-of-the-art frames, intense athlete now share court time with teens and senior adults, and the game, which was born in the USA, is now played in 87 countries worldwide. Racquetball, which celebrated its Silver Anniversary last year, is experiencing a renewed surge in popularity and favor with over 9.3 million active participants. More and more people . . . including Baby Boomers, the 35-44 year old group responsible for making racquetball hot in the 70's and 80's . . . are coming back for fitness and fun. In the Beginning Racquetball can trace its beginnings as early as the 1920's here in America, although the origin of racquetball currently played today has been credited to Joe Sobek, a tennis pro from Greenwich, Connecticut. Seeking an indoor alternative to tennis, Sobek in 1949 combined the rules of squash and handball to create a new game dubbed paddle racquets. He drew up plans using a platform tennis racquet as a pattern, and had an initial order of 25 prototypes made. The sport quickly caught on, but it wasn’t until 1968 that racquetball began to realize its potential. Contributing to its rapid rise in popularity was the birth of the International Racquetball Association (IRA), a precursor to the American Amateur Racquetball Association (AARA). Suddenly, racquetball had an organized tournament structure and a uniform set of rules. Another factor was that new equipment specifically designed for the sport became commercially available.

74. A Brief History Of Badminton A surprisingly long history for one of the Olympics Badminton s debut as an Olympicsport has clearly boosted and fitness that would exhaust a squash champion. http://users.erols.com/wiker/history.htm

A Brief History of Badminton Badminton was invented long ago; its origins date back at least two thousand years to the game of battledore and shuttlecock played in ancient Greece, India and China. A surprisingly long history for one of the Olympics newest sports! Badminton took its name from Badminton House in Gloucestershire, the home of the Duke of Beaufort, where the sport was played in the last century. By coincidence, Gloucestershire is now the base for the International Badminton Federation. The IBF was founded in 1934 with nine members - Canada, Denmark, England, France, Ireland, Netherlands, New Zealand, Scotland and Wales. The USA joined four years later. Membership grew steadily over the following years with a surge in new members after badminton's Olympic debut at Barcelona. As the sport's development program grows, the current 130 members is expected to increase further. The first major IBF tournament was the Thomas Cup (world men's team championships) in 1948. Since then, the number of world events has increased to seven, with the addition of the Uber Cup (ladies' team), World Championships, Sudirman Cup (mixed team), World Juniors, World Grand Prix Finals and the World Cup. The World Cup invitational event started in 1981 and is organized by the International Management Group (IMG). The World Cup series is due to end in 1997 and the IBF is considering organizing exhibition matches featuring the world's top players to replace the World Cup.

I quickly became bored with just running. My first Triathlon in 1992 The multi-sport of triathlon was very appealing and it quickly became my passion. Success came with a variety of wins at junior level, including the National Tour. After completing secondary school at Mazenod College (1993), I worked as an apprentice electrician for 2 years. It wasn't until I won both the Australian Sprint and Olympic Distance Titles (as a junior) that I decided that I had what it would take to turn professional. I left my apprenticeship and decided to train full-time.
