Jade Wilson

About

Jade Wilson was a New Zealand squash player representing the national team mainly in junior-level competitions. Jade Wilson is still remembered as one of the greatest ever junior squash players to have emerged from New Zealand and to have represented the country at junior level along with Stuart Davenport, Susan Devoy and Glen Wilson. She won the 1995 World Junior Squash Championships individual event in Sydney, which was her highest career performance. With this triumph, she also became the first ever New Zealander to win a Junior Squash Championship singles title. On 14 May 1998, she committed suicide in Perth after becoming an international professional player. In 2013, Squash New Zealand recognised Wilson's achievements and inducted her into the New Zealand Squash Hall of Fame, 15 years after her death. Read more
