What we use rankings for

Seedings

Satellite and Challenger Competitions
  • For Satellite and Challenger competitions, England Squash will use the National Junior Rankings to do all seedings.
  • All questions relating to seedings for satellite and challenger events must be directed to the tournament organiser.
  • If you believe there is an error with a ranking please report it via email to competitions@englandsquash.com.
Silver, Gold and Platinum Competitions
  • For Silver, Gold and Platinum competitions a seedings panel will meet to determine the seeds for each age group. The seeding panel will manually seed the top 8 seeds per age group. This will be based on ranking, finishing positions in recent major events, recent results and head to heads. The remainder of the seedings will revert to the latest ES ranking at the time of entry closing.
  • The seedings panel will be led by an experienced chair, supported by other coaches with highly relevant expertise and knowledge. The make up of the panel may vary from event to event.
  • When draws are created the first and second seeded players will be placed at the top and bottom of the draw respectively. The rest of the seeds are placed as follows:
      • 3-4 seeds are drawn and placed randomly
      • 5-8 seeds are drawn and placed randomly
      • 9-12 seeds are drawn and placed randomly
      • 13-16 seeds are drawn and placed randomly
      • 17-24 seeds are drawn and placed randomly
      • 25-32 seeds are drawn and placed randomly

Junior England, England Development and England Potential squad selection
