The Windy City is adding professional squash to its already rich team sports culture. Home of the Bulls, Bears, Blackhawks, Cubs, and White Sox, Chicago has a history of excellence across the major sports and the Grizzlies will have high expectations from the get go. Although this will be Chicago’s first venture into the professional squash world in a team setting, the city is no stranger to the sport. Chicago’s Union Station played host to the PSA World Championships in 2023, which boasted a record prize fund of over 1 million dollars split between the men and women. Additionally, the Windy City Open has been a mainstay on the PSA World Tour and has been one of the larger events on the calendar for years. The Grizzlies are based out of the University Club in downtown Chicago, one of the city’s oldest institutions founded in 1887.
