Primary Schools Project

What we offer

Our qualified coaches are offering to come to your school to provide sessions that will introduce Squash to primary school children using our portable equipment.
We can offer a series of sessions for up to 30 children. Each Session lasts approx 60mins. Please get in touch to explore further.

The session will be made up of fun activities using the portable equipment where children will learn:
● hand eye coordination skills
● basic understanding of the game
● values of sportsmanship & team playing
● benefits of activity to physical & mental well being

The programme seeks to use squash as a focus to:
● build confidence
● get active
● have fun

How much does it cost?

Due to this being a pilot project we are able to offer these sessions for free.

Testimonials

"A huge thank you to the coaches for coming in; they were so lovely with the children. The session was excellent and the children gained so much from it. The children were incredibly positive about the experience and many of them asked if we were doing it again. Not only did the children enjoy it but they also made a great deal of progress. From none of them knowing what squash is at the beginning, to all of the them participating in 'simplified games' by the end was evidence of this progress. It would be amazing to have this for a number of weeks to have the opportunity to see the children build the skills in order to be able to play more competitive matches".

From Lantern Lane Primary School

The squash sessions were absolutely fantastic! All children were engaged and active throughout, learning a range of new skills and having a go at playing squash. The coaching was excellent and tailored to meet the needs of all pupils. After finishing the sessions, a number of our pupils were inspired to take up squash and now attend sessions at Charnwood Squash and Racketball club. I would highly recommended the sessions to anyone who wishes to expose children to a new and exciting sport.

From Head of Sport, St Bartholomew's Primary School

Getting to coach squash in primary schools has really been a great experience! It’s been so nice to get to meet a bunch of new kids and teachers and to bring a new sport into a lot of their lives.

It has been an absolute pleasure to see how the children have developed their squash skills over the sessions. The biggest reward being how happy they seem to be when they see us and how much they enjoy the sessions.
