    Go back

    Indian Squash has seen steady growth over the last five years. Currently, around 10,000 players are registered with the Squash Rackets Federation of India (SRFI). SRFI aims to increase this number significantly over the coming years and also help players improve their rankings and score more medals at international tournaments. In order to realize this goal, there is a need to provide players with regular exposure to PSA tournaments and grassroots development programs, while empowering our coaches.

    Keeping this in mind, HCL has partnered with SRFI to transform the Squash ecosystem in India and launched the HCL Squash Podium Program in 2019. This multi-pronged program focuses on driving a 360-degree overhaul in Indian Squash by providing the right support at every level to players, coaches, and referees.
