squashThe Professional Squash Association (PSA) has announced that they have signed a three-year agreement with Panacea Dubai that will see Dubai become the latest destination to be added to the PSA World Series.

The agreement will see some of the best squash players in the world converge in Dubai for the first time in March 2015 for one of the pinnacle events in the 2014/15 PSA World Series.

The agreement will see Dubai follow in the footsteps of Qatar and Saudi Arabia to have staged top flight squash tournaments.

“We’re extremely happy to welcome Dubai on board as the latest country to become associated with the PSA World Series and look forward to what promises to be an exciting new tournament on the PSA World Tour,” said PSA chief executive Alex Gough in a statement. “Squash has received tremendous backing from the Middle East in recent years and we are pleased to see this expand yet further with the first ever PSA World Series event to take place in Dubai. Dubai has been synonymous with world class sport in recent years and we are delighted that squash will now have an opportunity to stake it’s claim on that already impressive list.”
