Squash splashed on the net
(Article in Times of India, Bombay Times, Mumbai : 12/11/1998)

Indian Squash now has a website, www.squashindia, thanks to the initiative of the Indian Squash Professionals. The website is the brainchild of Mahendra Agarwal, a director with ISP, who was disappointed at not finding any information on Indian Squash on the net.  With the launch of the website, squash has practically beaten all other sports barring cricket in getting on to the information highway

The website was launched with leading players, coaches and officials, peering at their terminals to see the latest information offered on the site.  Subhash Wali, another director of ISP, a non-profit organization formed with the promotion of squash as its aim, stated that the website would go a long way in providing information to players.  An entrepreneur who has helped professionals gain international exposure, Wali said that the website would be constantly updating data on players and their rankings in due course, it would also carry articles on the game, coaching tips and training methods. 

Within a week of its launch, the ISP website was listed by the International Squash Federation, whose earlier listing was merely the name of the secretary / Squash Rackets Federation of India.  A few days later, there were several visitors on the guest book and people wanting to link up the website.  Among the first ones to do so where the United States Squash Racket Association (USSRA), United Condo Squash Club (Singapore) and University of California.
