Mini Squash

Mini Squash

Research indicated that before the age to 10, children are most receptive to learning physical skills such as running, jumping, balance, coordination, throwing and catching. All of these skills are fundamental to the atletic development of children and form the basis of the the Mini Squash programme. Indeed these skills are fundamental not only to squash but to many other sports such as hockey, soccer, badminton, tenis etc.
Mini Squash is designed to enable every child to maximise their individual potential.
On top of all this it is lots and lots of fun.
There are three Mini Squash levels as outlined below. All use appropriate equipment.
All the equipment is supplied so the costs to the child are minimal.
