The event at the Squash On Fire facility between December 15 and 21 brings the tournament to the United States for the first time in its 50-year history.

Twenty-three nations will take part with the sport's powerhouse Egypt returning to defend the title they won in French city Marseille in 2017.

General admission tickets start at $20 (£16/€18) with VIP packages beginning at $50 (£40/€45).

"The Men's World Team Squash Championship is one of the most highly-anticipated tournaments that the sport has to offer," said Squash On Fire co-founder Philippe Lanier.

"We're thrilled to bring the world's top male players to Washington, D.C. for what promises to be a spectacular week of competition. 

"Squash On Fire is no stranger to hosting major squash tournaments and we're excited to welcome all athletes, coaches and spectators to our club. 

"We urge squash fans to pick up their tickets now to guarantee a front row seat to see all the action."
