Luton, in Southeast England, is normally known as a football and rugby city but it is also the birthplace of Victoria Lust.
Victoria, currently ranked 15 in the Professional Squash Association, was
born in Luton 28 years ago. Fortunately for us, she relocated to Canada, Victoria, B.C. to be specific, where she coaches at
the Shawnigan Lake School.
Victoria joined the world tour in 2007, by August 2016 she had achieved a ranking of 14th in the world. Since 2016, Victoria has won, made the finals or made the semi-finals of the Netsuite Open, Slaight Music, the Roundtable Capital Granite Open and the Monte Carlo Classic.
Victoria will be playing a series of exhibition matches at the Edmonton Squash Club on March 16 and 17, 2018.
