On Saturday, October 4, 2008, U.S. SQUASH held first annual Hall of Fame Gala Dinner at The Pierre Hotel in midtown Manhattan.

At the black-tie Gala Dinner, U.S. SQUASH inducted four new members in to the U.S. SQUASH Hall of Fame, award the 2008 President's Cup , the Association's most prestigious award, and honor Jahangir Khan, two-time U.S. Open Champion, ten-time British Open Champion and current World Squash Federation Board President.

The Association's long term goals include earning four gold medals in the men's and women's team and individual competitions when squash is admitted into the 2016 Olympics. In support of our efforts to accomplish these goals, half of all proceeds from the Gala will be used to directly fund our U.S. Olympic Committee-endorsed Junior, Under 23 and Adult National Team training and competition programs.
