Local squash in line for World Championships debut

The City of Manchester, home to England Squash and Racketball (ESR), will host the prestigious PSA Men's World Squash Championships in 2013 following last week's announcement. Botswana's squash side has been dormant for long, despite success by some locals on the international scene. Koketso Ntshepe, BSRA's development manager, confirmed the likelihood of sending a team to the prestigious competition.

"We are currently working on the paperwork and we really want to do that. We need to complete an application and pay some registration fees - but it's all looking good," he told Mmegi Sport.  He believes Botswana can raise a strong team that can compete at an international level.
