This #WomensSquashWeek, we’re proud to celebrate the girls and women who make our squash community stronger.

This year’s theme, Her Court: Her Story, celebrates the stories, experiences, and contributions of women across the sport and the importance of creating spaces where more girls can see themselves on court, find their confidence, and build community through squash.

At Squash Haven, we’re proud to be part of a global squash community committed to empowering the next generation of women and girls, both on and off the court.

Here’s to our girls, their stories, and all that’s still ahead 💚 #HerCourtHerStory

Hit. Hang. Head to college.

Last Wednesday, an amazing group of Squash Haven alums came back to where it all started for a Hit & Hang. They jumped on court with our upperclassmen and then sat down for a candid Q&A session about college and life after Squash Haven.

This is what our community is all about 💚
