"As
you might know, I am now working fulltime for the
Professional Squash Association (PSA) as Chief Commercial
Officer after the integration of the women’s tour into the
PSA was successfully completed, and as a result my life has
become even busier over the past months.
"Coupled with a squash club that I own in the Netherlands, a
wife that still plays on the professional circuit and two
young kids, the time has come to hand over my SquashSite
duties to suitable successors."

Claudia
Schürmann
Former PSA Tour
Director, Executive assistant,
After moving away from her native Switzerland in the late
nineties, Claudia spent 12 years in New York working for
various companies. During the last six years in New York,
she was the executive director of the Swiss Benevolent
Society, a non-profit organisation.
Claudia was first introduced to squash through her
affiliation with the Tournament of Champions, where she ran
the bar from 2004 until 2010.
Through her friendship with Vanessa Atkinson and James
Willstrop, Claudia decided to move to the UK in 2010 with
the plan to start a business together in Leeds. Instead,
Claudia started working with the PSA and would soon become
an integral part of the reinvigoration of the association
when it moved offices to Leeds in 2012. Claudia worked as
the PSA Tour Director until last year when she decided to
return to her home town of Zurich.
Claudia is currently working as the executive assistant for
a high-end wine trading company, however, her love of squash
remains unabated and we are delighted that she has agreed to
join the SquashSite team, as her organising skills and
knowledge of the squash world are basically second to none!
