Forget TV, Glass Courts and DEFINITELY the Olympics
I am certainly not a fan of squash's Sisyphean efforts to become a
full Olympic sport, nor do I share the comfortable belief of
many that pursuing increased TV coverage should be a priority
for our sport.
I do think Will raised some thoughtful points in his blog Don't Sell Squash's Soul to the Devil(s), but believe intelligent commercialization and co-operation within our sport could and should be done to improve the current and future health of the squash ecosystem.
Hey, if it's all about getting into the mainstream media including TV coverage, maybe we should have some squash stunt like in the picture below?
What do you think should be the priorities for stabilizing and growing the sport? As always we welcome your comments, concerns, compliments and ideas. Add a comment below or send us an email to SquashZAG@gmail.com

Zag, let me discuss with your sarcasm… I think the topic of Olympic vs squash has been covered zillion times and every argument was clearly understood, even if not appreciated. TV coverage topic leaves a huge room for further talks. In all earnest I have no clue why the POKER games/ Darts etc. are the subject of broadcast by sport tv channels and squash is NOT.
All-in-all, I am tired of sarcastic comments regarding squash-olympics-tv-popularity...
One other thing, I paid 80 dollars for full year unlimited coverage of squashTV, no commercials, no interruptions, all right on my laptop...if sarcasm means questioning anything, then we should all be incredibly sarcastic.
