52nd Annual General Meeting of Singapore Squash Rackets Association (SSRA) will be
convened
and held by way of electronic means on Thursday, 29th September 2022, at 7.00 p.m.
Singapore Squash Rackets Association (SSRA) organised Squash Ball 2022, at the
Shangri-La
Singapore, Island Ballroom, on 13 August 2022, to mark the 50th Anniversary of Singapore
Squash, in conjunction with Singapore’s National Day celebrations.
A new star was born at the Oncocare National Junior Squash Championships and her name is
Ong
Zhe Sim. The timid Secondary 2 student from Methodist Girls School defied the odds to
win
not one, but both the Girls’ Under-17 and Under-19 titles. Her win also marks the first
time
top national junior Gracia Chua has been beaten in at least the last five years in a
local
junior event
Samuel Kang created history this afternoon when he won his fifth National Squash Championships in a row after producing a commanding display to see off arch-rival Aaron Liang in straight games at the Kallang Squash Centre. His win today broke the previous consecutive titles record shared between himself and Singapore legend Zainal Abidin Malik, who won four in a row in 1979-1982.
We entered 2021 on a positive note with the year starting with Singapore in Phase 3,
which
allowed all of us back on the courts.
Singapore Squash had a good run of events throughout the year, but some mainstays of our
event calendar were hard hit by the regressions to two Heightened Alerts in May and June
–
namely the National Squash League (NSL) and the Squash Ball.
The NSL was slated to commence in May. Singapore Squash worked closely with all squash
clubs
to understand the possible constraints each club would face in a league setting, with
Safe
Measure Management (SMM) in place.
The challenges and constraints were met and the League was split into two seasons with
only
one grade playing per weekday evening. Alas, it was not meant to be as the nation
reverted
to Phase 2 in May 2021, and remained in Heightened Alert until August.
The Squash Ball, which was scheduled in the second half of the year, was further
postponed
with the ever-changing SMMs. We are back onto the drawing board once again and are
hoping
to
have this in the later part of 2022.
Undaunted by the SMMs in place, Singapore Squash successfully organised several
tournaments
and events throughout the year, but without spectators to add to the sporting
atmosphere.
