It’s finals day at the 2026 World Squash Junior Championships at the White Oaks Resort in Niagara-on-the Lake, Canada, as the final four players aim to secure their place in squash’s history books.
Play begins at 13:00 (GMT-4) on the all-glass court, live on WORLDSQUASH.TV, the Olympic Channel and select partner channels.

The first match sees Indian top seed Anahat Singh take on Egyptian No.2 seed Ruqayya Salem. Singh goes into today’s match hoping to make national sporting history by becoming India’s first ever world champion.
The 18-year-old is playing in her fifth and final World Juniors and will be desperate to end her junior career on a high.
Salem, meanwhile, is playing her first World Juniors at aged 18, having failed to make it through Egypt’s notoriously challenging qualification tournament last year. The Egyptian will be hoping to continue her country’s stunning streak of 13 consecutive winners in the women’s championships, a record than began with Nour El Tayeb in Boston, USA, in 2011.
In the men’s final, Egypt are guaranteed a gold and silver after top seed Mohamad Zakaria and No.2 seed Adam Hawal set up an all-Egyptian final.
Zakaria will be hoping to end his junior career by breaking yet another record, with the 18-year-old – who has already risen to World No.7 in the PSA World Rankings – aiming to become the first male player to win the title three times.
Despite Zakaria’s dominance of the junior circuit, Hawal should not be counted out. The 18-year-old is cool under pressure and capable of going toe-to-toe with the world’s best, most notably at this season’s Egyptian Open when he stunned former World No.1 Paul Coll.
Action from the Jonathon Power Glass Court and select other courts is available to enjoy live and free on WORLDSQUASH.TV as well as select partner channels.
