World Squash Officiating (WSO) – jointly owned by the World Squash Federation (WSF) and the Professional Squash Association (PSA) – is delighted to announce a new partnership with leading sportswear manufacturer Castore. This partnership will see Castore become the official clothing supplier and eCommerce Retail Partner of WSO, as well as the PSA.
WSO Referees sported Castore clothing for the first time at the Comcast Business U.S. Open Championships, between 19th-26th October.
