ISP lobs into cyberspace

9th September 98 

Indian Squash has a website, www.squashindia.com. Thanks to the initiative shown by Indian Squash Professionals it has beaten all other sports barring cricket in getting on to the information highway. 

The website was launched with tantare with seeding players, coaches and officials poring over the terminals to see the latest information offered on the site. Mr. Subhash Wali, a director of ISP a non profit organization formed with the promotion of squash as its aim, told a press conference that the website would go a long way in providing a variety of information to the players. An entrepreneur who has helped professionals gain international exposure. Mr. Wali said that the website would be constantly updating data on players and their rankings in due course, it will also carry articles on the game, coaching and training methods. The website is the brainchild of Mr. Mahendra Agarwal, another ISP Director, who was disappointed by not finding any information about Indian Squash while sorting the Net and decided to fill the lacuna.   

Mr. R. K Bhuta, director Solva Net who helped launch the website, said that in this age of information technology it was essential to get on to the interest as it greatly helped interaction and exchange of news and views. ProSquash can also be read on the website. 

  

The response to the site was tremendous with interaction from fans from abroad. Within a week the ISP website was listed by the International Squash Federation, whose earlier listing was merely the name of secretary ‘Squash Rackets Federation of India’. A few days later there were several visitors to the guestbook and people wanting to link-up with our website. Among the first ones to do so was the United State Squash Racket Association (USSRA), United Condo Squash Club (Singapore) & University of California .
