The secondary research process involved comprehensive analysis of sports industry databases, trade publications, government statistics, and authoritative sports organizations. Key sources included the World Squash Federation (WSF), Professional Squash Association (PSA), US Squash, England Squash, Squash Australia, European Squash Federation, Asian Squash Federation, National Sporting Goods Association (NSGA), Sports & Fitness Industry Association (SFIA), Statista Sports Database, International Health, Racquet & Sportsclub Association (IHRSA), World Federation of Sporting Goods Industry (WFSGI), national sports ministry reports from key markets (UK Department for Culture, Media & Sport, US Department of Health & Human Services, Australian Institute of Health & Welfare), customs and trade databases for equipment import/export data, and academic publications from sports science journals. These sources were used to collect participation statistics, tournament data, equipment sales figures, demographic trends, and market landscape analysis for squash racquets, balls, footwear, clothing, and court equipment.
Qualitative and quantitative insights were obtained by interviewing supply-side and demand-side stakeholders during the primary research process. The supply-side sources consisted of CEOs, VPs of Product Development, brand managers, and regional sales directors from OEM suppliers, sporting products companies, and squash equipment manufacturers. Professional squash players, coaches, sports club managers, specialty store owners, procurement leads from multi-brand sporting goods retailers, and facility managers from squash clubs and fitness centers constituted demand-side sources. Market segmentation was verified, product launch timelines were confirmed, and insights regarding equipment adoption patterns, pricing strategies, and distribution channel dynamics were obtained through primary research.
