Where Squash has taken me

08 Apr 2013 | Hits: 204

 

Squash has taken me to many places all over the world and I have memories that will last a lifetime.  I discovered a love for Squash at a very young age but traveling overseas was at first very daunting for me as I was a very shy introverted girl from a very small country town called Tully in QLD Australia. 

 

Since I was eighteen years old I have been competing internationally at various tournaments and it has allowed me to meet such amazing people, experience different cultures and come across incredible opportunities.   I can say Squash has definitely changed aspects of my personality and has molded me into who I am today.

 

I first joined the Women’s Squash association (WSA) tour in 2001, I have now played professionally for 12 years and in those 12 years I have played 266 WSA tour matches, 112 WSA tour events, have played in 24 tour finals and have won 21 WSA events. 

 

I decided to plot out exactly where Squash has taken me on a world map.  Below is all the places I have travel to and a few that I have lived in during the past 15 years.

 

The list of 16 countries and 60 Cities and Im sure Ive missed a few here and there.
