By Matthew Davis
BBC News Online
Games will be shorter - and rallies more intense The world's best squash players are using a new scoring system this week in a move aimed at making the game more exciting.
The number of points needed to win a game has been cut by almost a third - from 15 to 11 - akin to a football match being hacked back to 60 minutes, or the men's final at Wimbledon being played as the best-of-three-sets. It's the latest tactic in the struggle to develop by a sport that has often been seen as more fun to play than to watch. Critics say the change has been rushed in without proper consultation and will only confuse the public. But many players and officials believe it is one of the most exciting times to be involved in the sport and that the latest change to the 150-year-old game will be a welcome boost.

Squash was one of 18 sports rejected by the Board, including polo, surfing, bridge, chess, billiards, bowling and dance sport (say what?). Year after year the President of the World Squash Federation, Susie Simcock, and the other members of the Management Committee travel thousands of miles promoting squash around the world and lobbying the IOC. But all to no avail.

http://www.eijkhout.net/rad/dance_other/olympic.html
DanceSport in the Olympics
The state of affairs before 2000
On Sept. 8, 1997 IOC granted the International DanceSport Federation (IDSF) status as a recognized federation and a member of the IOC. This does not mean that dancing has been recognzed as a medal sport. It simply means that the IOC has recognized an international body for governing dance-sport. This recognition is granted under Chapter 29 of the IOC Charter. Chapters 30 and 57 of the IOC Charter grant the international federation for a given sport the right to set the technical rules for competitions in that sport. So IDSF gets to set all the rules for DanceSport including styling and technique. The reasons for having an international federation recognized by IOC, even though the sport is not included in the Olympics, are 1) because it is a requirement for ultimately becoming a medal sport and 2) IOC believes strongly in furthering sports on the international level. DanceSport will NOT be a medal sport in Sydney in 2000 or in Athens in 2004. Under chapter 52 of the IOC Charter, sports must receive medal programme inclusion at least 7 years before the games begin, which means the deadline for the IOC Session (members) to vote on inclusion in the 2008 Olympics is September 2001. IDSF is planning on submitting an application for inclusion in 2008. It appears that the biggest hurdle that DanceSport faces is the sport versus art distinction. The IOC recently held a roundtable forum on Sports and Culture. One of the general themes was that art was used to celebrate the sports - and that both art and sport form part of the Olympic Culture. Also, the panel members seemed to say that sports are inherently artisitic, but that which is artistic is not necessarily sporting. A number of commentators tried to define art versus sport, but they seem to have generally failed, and resigned themselves to "I know sport (or art) when I see it."

SQUASH may still be struggling to find a foothold in the Botswana sporting arena but the president of the Botswana Squash Association, Ishmael Serwadi believes that it is destined for exciting times.

And those exciting times are not far-off. Serwadi’s confidence is born of several factors, which according to him puts the game in the right path to development especially at the grass roots level.
Among the good tidings for squash is Serwadi’s recent appointment to the vice presidency of the Squash Federation of Africa, a thing he believes would put Botswana on the continental and international squash map.
“It would serve us well in building relationships and of course it is an honour for the country to be in the continental body,” he told Mmegi Sport in an interview this week.
He said the appointment is a vote of confidence in his leadership and that of the Botswana squash body by the Squash Federation of Africa. He added that the appointment is a challenge to Botswana squash to puts its act together. This would entail starting the national squash league, making squash more active and above all concentrating on grass root development.

Squash in 2004?
By Eman Abdel-Moeti THANKS to Egypt, the non-Olympic sport of squash might make its long-awaited debut at the 2004 Games. With its unique setting the squash glass court on a small island across from the Marriott Hotel the women's squash Grand Prix Finals here in Hurghada was quite impressive, so much so that the game might soon become an official Olympic sport. That's the word from Andrew Shelly, director of the Women's International Squash Professionals Association (WISPA). Shelly told the Weekly that the site, plus the Al-Ahram Organisation's support for squash, are some of the major reasons the game could make it to the 2004 Games. Squash officials did not want to wait even that long. Shelly met three weeks ago with the president of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), Juan Antonio Samaranch, in a bid to include squash in the 2000 Olympic Games in Sydney. But with the Olympics just a little over a year away, the effort came a bit too late. Squash is also cash-strapped, another obstacle which needs to be removed. Still, Shelly presented a strong case for the game, especially the women's events. "We have world championships, we are members in the Commonwealth Games, we have continental competitions including the Grand Prix which comprises 10 tournaments and our members come from 160 countries," Shelly told Samaranch.

Squash for the Olympics?
By Eman Abdel-Moeti Although the World Squash Federation (WSF) is a member of the International Olympic Committee (IOC), it has so far failed to convince the Committee to make squash an Olympic game. Eman Abdel-Moeti reports However, WSF officials are hoping that the successful Al-Ahram International Squash Championship will help open the doors for an Olympic slot. This year's tournament, held at the foot of the Giza Pyramids, was the third in a series that started two years ago. "The publicity spurred by the unique setting of the Al-Ahram Championship in European papers like The Guardian and international squash publications impressed IOC members," said John Nimmick, executive director of WSF tournaments. Andrew Chilli, a member of the WSF championship committee, added that the women's Grand Slam in Hurghada had also caught the eye of the IOC. "Both events gave the sport more publicity world-wide," he said. Both officials said the Al-Ahram tournament was beginning to overshadow the World Championship. For instance, the total prize money for the Al-Ahram Championship was $150,000 for the men, $50,000 more than what is on offer at the rival event.

Future of squash tied to Olympics - Beckford
Beckford
WHEN IT comes to regional competition, squash is one of Jamaica's most successful sports. Although it has been around for over 40 years, however, it remains a minor sport in Jamaica. In a One-on-One interview Douglas Beckford, president of the Jamaica Squash Association for the past 24 years and former president of the Caribbean Squash Association, says one reason for its low rating here is perception and another is the lack of funding. QUESTION: Where do you see squash in the overall picture of Jamaica's sports? DOUGLAS BECKFORD: Well, you just have to look at the results in regional competitions and you will see that squash is right there with the best.
