Monaco is set to host the 2020 edition of the World Squash Federation (WSF) Annual General Meeting (AGM).

It was decided at a WSF Board meeting in London that Monaco would host the AGM for the first time. 

"I am delighted that the Board selected Monaco's proposal to host our AGM this year," said WSF President Jacques Fontaine. 

"Monaco is one of the most historic members of our Federation and I'm confident it will be remarkably organised, as Monaco has had a long experience with hosting major corporate events for international sporting organisations."

Monaco hosts the annual Monte Carlo Classic, one of the most established events on the women's Professional Squash Association Tour.

The competition is set to celebrate its 25th anniversary this year.

 "We are thrilled to be invited to host the 2020 WSF AGM," said Monaco Squash Federation President Bruno Fissore.

"Monte Carlo is an international hub for numerous sporting events and a city world-renowned for hosting major corporate events.

"We will immediately start working on the organisation to ensure a memorable experience to all our colleagues who will attend this AGM."

The AGM is scheduled for December 1 to 5, with further details set to be confirmed soon. 

Last year's AGM took place in the South African city of Cape Town.
