The
Professional Squash Association has underlined the importance of the
burgeoning Squash market in North and South America by appointing Justin
(Gus) Cook as a consultant for the territory.
US-based Cook, the long-time promoter of the Davenport Professional
Championship in Virginia, has been given responsibility for seeking new
promoters and assisting them, and current PSA partners, to create and
develop new events for the World Tour.
Cook is positive about the potential for his new role: "I am very pleased
to accept this newly-formed position with the PSA and excited by the great
many new pro tournament prospects that certainly exist in North America.
"The sport in general has been gaining momentum in this part of the world
over the last 15 years and the PSA represents the top echelon of elite
players," Cook continued. "These players are incredible to watch in action
and can help raise awareness of the sport to a new audience along with
creating added excitement in established squash communities."
Cook started work on this new project in April and has already made contact
with many potential promoters. He can be reached on e-mail at

or by telephone on (+1) 443 622 0360
