I'm not sure how well this will work (if at all), but there is a petition up and running to try and get squash into the Olympics 2012.



Please sign up your support and pass this link onto EVERY squash player you have access to by email. Those of you that can spare the time, please print out a poster to place in your local club(s) for their support.

I very much doubt that the PM has any direct say on what is and isn't included by the IOC, but I'm sure that there are other (financial) effects that the PM can have over the Olympics. Maybe if the support is strong enough there could be some sway placed on the IOC to review their decision?



Who knows!



All I know is that when I first looked at the petition there were only 130 names on it. I immediately posted it on here and sent it to every squash player in my e-addressbook. It's only on 867 now. A bit disappointing, but then I've only got about 30 names in my addressbook!!



Every little helps - as Tesco so famously say!

Didn't realize the British PM determined which sports were included. I'll sign the petition, but I suspect there are better audiences, such as IOC. Perhaps a few choice kidnappings would be more effective?
