Coronavirus (COVID-19) updates

Important information for all Member Nations, players, officials and supporters.

 

To Member Nations, players, officials and supporters.

Due to the continued unknown consequences of the COVID-19 Coronavirus outbreak, European Squash Federation, Squash Bond Netherlands and England Squash are all working in close collaboration with regards to the forthcoming European Team Championships Division 1 and 2 and European Teams U15/U17 2020.

There are clearly huge implications to organising events on this scale, and we would like Member Nations to be reassured that we are taking Government Directives into account, whilst communicating on a daily basis with regards to the planning of these events. We are also proactively examining the options of re-scheduling these important tournaments, whilst conscious of the cost and logistical implications.

The ESF Board remain fully committed to the health and welfare of our players, hosts and officials, whilst taking the advice of Governments and health officials.

It is hoped that further information will be shared online in due course regarding these events. We will update our website with any changes that are enforced in the interest of public health. Please visit our webpage for a list of updates regarding events.

Thomas Troedsson is the ESF lead contact for all COVID-19 Coronavirus. Please keep Thomas updated of developments in your nations.
