The twelve mixed-gender teams who will battle it out for next month’s SDAT Squash World Cup in Chennai, India, have been confirmed.
All five of World Squash’s Continental Federations will be represented at this year’s Squash World Cup: From Asia, hosts India will be joined by National Federation representatives of IR Iran, Japan, Malaysia, Republic of Korea and Hong Kong, China; Africa will be represented by Egypt and South Africa; Europe by Poland and Switzerland; Oceania by Australia and Panamericana by Brazil.
The Squash World Cup is an international tournament overseen by World Squash in which National Federation squads of two men and two women play ties of four matches against each other, with each match being best-of-five games.
The event was relaunched in 2023, with a number of innovative changes brought in, including scoring games to seven and sudden death tiebreaks when scores are at 6-6.
This format will remain place for the fifth edition of the Squash World Cup, with fans praising the fast-paced nature of the scoring and the equal balance between male and female players.
At the last edition, in 2023, Egypt claimed the title in an exciting come-from-behind victory against Malaysia in front of a sell-out crowd at Express Avenue Mall.
Following the success of the 2023 edition, this year’s Squash World Cup will take place at the same venue, with Squash Rackets Federation of India (SRFI) hosting the championships from December 9-14.
This edition of the Squash World Cup will once again be sponsored by the Tamil Nadu Government and supported by the Ministry of Youth Affairs and Sport in India.
Further details about the 2025 Squash World Cup, including squads and streaming information, will be released in due course.
