Ilkley Squash Club are taking part in World Squash Day on Saturday, which will hopefully attract new players to the sport.

The club are holding an open day to give new players an opportunity to try out squash and racketball with the club coach, as well as the chance to watch a number of games.

The format for World Squash Day has a 2020 theme. Clubs are invited to field two teams of 20 players, with rival team members playing one game up to 20 points.

The scores from every club will count towards an overall global result between Team Squash and Team 2020.

World Squash Day organisers hope the total figure of competitors will run into the hundreds of thousands, and enable them to claim the event as the biggest sports fixture in history, as well as the biggest squash match.
