The squash community of Vancouver was given the opportunity to watch an exhibition match between the world’s number one women’s player, Nicol David, and five-time world champion Sarah Fitz-Gerald.

SQUASH OUT IN THE COLD IN BEIJING - Like many people around the world this summer I will be interested to see how things pan out in Beijing. I find it refreshing to be able to turn on the TV at peak time and see a sport like synchronised diving.
