Cassidy Travel, Ireland’s leading travel agent, has been named the Official Travel Partner to Squash Ireland. The sponsorship deal will see Cassidy Travel manage flights and travel logistics for Ireland teams travelling to major tournaments.
This includes the World Team Championships in South Korea, the Junior World Championships in Canada, along with key European Championships for senior and junior players over the coming year.
In addition, Cassidy Travel will develop bespoke travel packages for squash fans, providing opportunities to attend some of the most iconic tournaments around the world.
Squash in Ireland has been on the rise in recent years, with membership increasing by more than 30 per cent over the past two years and 12 new clubs affiliating with the all-island national governing body during the same period.
Squash Ireland has also been shortlisted for National Governing Body of the Year award for two consecutive years.
In a major boost for the sport, squash has been included in the programme for the LA 2028 Olympic Games and the 2027 European Games for the first time.
Ireland’s top-ranked male and female players have made significant progress in recent years and are now at or near their all-time high PSA world rankings, with their sights firmly set on qualification for the 2027 European Games and the 2028 Olympic Games.
Squash Ireland CEO Scott Graham said: “We are very ambitious for the organisation, and our top elite players are striving to compete at the highest level. The sponsorship and support of Cassidy Travel will be an enormous help in this journey.
“We have been working with Cassidy Travel for some time and can vouch for the excellent levels of customer service and their unrivalled experience, particularly in the area of sports travel. We look forward to continuing that partnership in 2026 and beyond.”
Sharon Harney, general manager of the Cassidy Travel Group, added: “As Ireland’s leading sports travel provider, Cassidy Travel is delighted to partner with Squash Ireland as their Official Travel Provider.
“Together, we will provide seamless end-to-end travel solutions for both athletes and fans alike. We manage the logistics for the qualifying Irish teams, so the players only need to focus on the scoreboard.
“Our extensive portfolio of exciting worldwide destinations, venues, and sporting experiences allows us to bring fans directly into the excitement of the crowd and the intensity of live sport.”
