FOUNDATION (REGISTERED NUMBER: 10236715)

REPORT OF THE TRUSTEES
FOR THE YEAR ENDED 31 DECEMBER 2023



The trustees, who are also directors of the charity for the purposes of the Companies Act 2006, present their report with the financial statements of the charity for the year ended 31 December 2023. The trustees have adopted the provisions of Accounting and Reporting by Charities: Statement of Recommended Practice applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102) (effective 1 January 2019).

2023 was a milestone year for the PSA Foundation as we continued to expand the reach and accessibility of squash worldwide. With a renewed focus on sustainability, accessibility, and community support, we have strengthened our commitment to making squash an inclusive, visible, and impactful sport across different regions. Through our dedicated programs and the engagement of our partners, we've taken significant strides in meeting our strategic pillars and in providing meaningful support to underserved communities.

Our Rebound initiative has grown, with a total of 6,061 items of recycled squash gear distributed to Squash for Development Organizations (SDOs) and national federations worldwide. This year's donations included 606 rackets, 2,432 squash balls, 2,131 pieces of clothing, 149 pairs of shoes, and 674 accessories. These donations reached communities that lack access to quality sports equipment, empowering more young people to engage with squash.

Our work with our partner Squash for Development Organizations has come from strength to strength. Through our monthly meetings, we have been able to establish a solid support network within the programs. The shared knowledge and best practices have made a significant impact both in the creation of new programs in other parts of the world and in strengthening the ones that currently exist. We also created a joint data collection and impact report to measure the collective impact of these organizations. The report highlights that 95% of participating children reported feeling happier, and 86% expressed greater confidence in trying new sports. An overwhelming 94% felt safe within their SDO facility. It also shows the impact at home where 68% of parents noticed an improvement in their child's happiness, while 72% observed better concentration levels. Additionally, 72% reported increased physical activity in their children since joining an SDO.

We were also very proactive in engaging with the local community. In England, we introduced over 1,000 children to squash through activations at five tournaments, engaging schools from inner-city and underserved communities. These events, led by qualified coaches, provided invaluable exposure to the sport and encouraged physical activity among young people from diverse backgrounds.

Our Women in Coaching Fund (WICF) supported coaching courses in the US and Malaysia, resulting in 16 new female coaches and two new female coaching tutors. This initiative has now reached North America, and Asia, and in the next year, it will reach Africa, delivering training in three languages and furthering our goal of empowering women in squash.

Our advocacy efforts engaged diverse audiences through campaigns supporting inclusivity, mental health, and gender equity. This included the Women's Squash Week #YouBelong campaign, the Pride in Squash initiative for LGBT+ inclusion, and the Movember Squashtache campaign for men's health. Our social media reach averaged 146,736 impressions per campaign, underscoring the success of these initiatives in raising awareness and engagement.

The PSA Foundation also provided 87 fully funded counselling sessions for PSA Tour players this season, continuing our mission to support athletes' well-being. Our Health and Wellness Program, led by 13 player ambassadors, facilitated discussions on key topics like injury recovery, stress management, and the value of counselling, fostering a supportive community on tour.

In the coming year, we aim to further our reach by increasing the number of SDOs within our network, expanding outdoor squash courts through Project Beacon, and strengthening our mental health support initiatives. Through partnerships and community engagement, we will continue to make squash a sport accessible to all and foster an environment of inclusivity and well-being for players and participants worldwide.

INDEPENDENT EXAMINER'S REPORT TO THE TRUSTEES OF
PROFESSIONAL SQUASH ASSOCIATION
FOUNDATION


Independent examiner's report to the trustees of Professional Squash Association Foundation ('the Company')
I report to the charity trustees on my examination of the accounts of the Company for the year ended 31 December 2023.

Responsibilities and basis of report
As the charity's trustees of the Company (and also its directors for the purposes of company law) you are responsible for the preparation of the accounts in accordance with the requirements of the Companies Act 2006 ('the 2006 Act').

Having satisfied myself that the accounts of the Company are not required to be audited under Part 16 of the 2006 Act and are eligible for independent examination, I report in respect of my examination of your charity's accounts as carried out under Section 145 of the Charities Act 2011 ('the 2011 Act'). In carrying out my examination I have followed the Directions given by the Charity Commission under Section 145(5) (b) of the 2011 Act.

Independent examiner's statement
I have completed my examination. I confirm that no matters have come to my attention in connection with the examination giving me cause to believe:

1. accounting records were not kept in respect of the Company as required by Section 386 of the 2006 Act; or
2. the accounts do not accord with those records; or
3. the accounts do not comply with the accounting requirements of Section 396 of the 2006 Act other than any requirement that the accounts give a true and fair view which is not a matter considered as part of an independent examination; or
4. the accounts have not been prepared in accordance with the methods and principles of the Statement of Recommended Practice for accounting and reporting by charities (applicable to charities preparing their accounts in accordance with the Financial Reporting Standard applicable in the UK and Republic of Ireland (FRS 102)).

I have no concerns and have come across no other matters in connection with the examination to which attention should be drawn in this report in order to enable a proper understanding of the accounts to be reached.
