World Squash Day 2022

REMINDER

Celebrate WORLD SQUASH DAY on Saturday October 15th and help promote both your club and our great game of Squash, IRISH SQUASH urge you to organise a day of activity in your squash club.  The message is simple: Let’s all focus on a day of Fun For Everyone.

We also encourage you to fundraise for a local charity during your event, to engage the event with your local community.

This is an opportunity to bring your club together and also to promote the club and Squash to the community in your area.

So please organise play in your club on Saturday the 15th of October.

Irish Squash particularly encourage you to organise play for juniors in your club/community, even if they have never played before. 

*Promote the event on your club’s social media platform with the WSD logo & the hashtag  #squashfun on every post
