Apr212022
ESF European Team Division 1&2 Squash Championships 2022
The Championship Committee formed a seeding group to discuss the objections that have been filed regarding the seeding.
Women’s
The seeding group agreed that:
- There has been a significant change of strengths of two teams, France with the loss of their no 1, Wales with the addition of a top 20 player.
- The two pools needs to be balanced in order for the top four teams to reach the final.
- The seeding using PSA ranking is transparent and logical.
Decision: The Seeding group decided to:
- Re seed the Women’s div 1 due to the significant change of two teams, France and Wales, and use the current PSA ranking (1 April) as the base of the seeding. Where it’s very similar strengths a draw has been made. The new seeding will be:
Pool A England (1), France (4), Scotland (5), Finland (8)
Pool B Belgium (2), Wales (3), Netherlands (6), Germany (7)
The decision was unanimous and there is no right to appeal the final seeding.
