Our junior squash coaching programme is based on the Developmental Model of Sport Participation, which suggests that children go through three stages when playing sport; Sampling, Specialising and Investing.
The blue and green sessions are our recreational pathway for players in the “sampling” stage. This is comprised of both our Open Sessions and our Club Squad sessions. The Orange Sessions are our two tier Performance Pathway. The Evolve Squad is for players in the “Specialising” phase, looking to focus more on competition. The Prime Squad is for athletes in the Investing phase, and looking to become high performance players.
