Join the Squash Girls Can campaign
Squash Girls Can is a national participation campaign which celebrates women up and down the country playing and coaching squash. We aim to inspire and encourage more women and girls to pick up a racket or coach and spend quality time together whilst getting fit and having fun.
Help to inspire more women and girls.
Squash club's, leisure facilities, universities and other venues can get involved by including any women and girls squash or Squash 57 sessions on Squash Girls Can session map. Any sessions included within the campaign will all have these 4 things in common:
- They are female-only
- They are social and friendly
- They are beginner-friendly
- They are low cost
If you're already delivering female-only sessions that meet the 4 criteria you're ready to join the campaign.
All Squash Girls Can sessions and participants must be recorded on the England Squash app. Log in using your England Squash membership details.
