Answer: What is World Squash Federation mean?

The World Squash Federation (WSF) is the international federation for squash, an indoor racket sport which was formerly called "squash rackets." The WSF is recognised by the International Olympic Committee (IOC) as the International Federation (IF) for squash, and is also a member of the SportAccord and the Association of the IOC Recognised International Sports Federations (ARISF).

It is based in Hastings in England. As of 2016 it has 149 member federations. It is bidding for squash to be added to the Olympic program for the 2024 Summer Olympics and 2028 Summer Olympics having failed with a bid for Tokyo 2020.

The first squash court was built in England in 1865; there are now around 50,000 courts in more than 185 nations worldwide. To harness this growth and to promote and co-ordinate the sport, the International Squash Rackets Federation (ISRF) was formed in 1967, its name being changed in 1992 to the World Squash Federation (WSF).
