It is with great sadness that the World Squash Federation hears of the tragic passing of Mohamed Yehia Sebay aged 17 of El Shams Club.

We send our deepest condolences to Mohamed’s loved ones, everybody at El Shams and Black Ball Sporting Club, and the Egyptian Squash community during this difficult time.

We would like to recognise the response of all those who reacted quickly on court and thank the emergency services for their effort to save Mohamed.
