Squash is a challenging and fun racket sport played across the world. At StreetSquash, students are introduced to the sport in 6th or 7th grade, and work hard to develop as players throughout their years in the program. We are committed to each child achieving his or her potential on court and to each child incorporating athletics as part of a healthy lifestyle.
