• Produce and publish world rankings;
• Increase exposure for the sport and its players;
• Encourage professionalism among its members;
• Raise the administrative standards at events;
• Increase the level of support and advice offered to promoters; and
• Improve communication and relationships with other squash organizations and the press.

The new women's squash game is governed now by the Women's Squash Association (WSA).
