Squash Junior Programme

Squash For Juniors

Getting Started

Our junior squash programme welcomes children from the age of 4 years upwards, offering a fun and supportive way to learn the game. Squash helps children improve their fitness, coordination, and concentration, while building confidence and resilience through fun, fast-paced play.

Through regular coaching, tournaments, and events, juniors can build their skills, grow in confidence, and enjoy the social side of squash.

Skills and Development

Coaching for Juniors

If your child is 4 years or older and keen to try squash, this is the perfect place to start. Coaching sessions are designed around fun games and activities that develop coordination, agility, and confidence on court.

All groups are small, supportive, and designed to make squash both fun and rewarding for every child.

As squash at Falmouth Sports Club continues to grow, we are excited to introduce some exciting updates to our junior squash coaching programme. We are revising the setup to with new groups and creating clearer progression pathways for our players.

These new groups will allow players to train with others at a similar stage of development, helping them build skills, confidence and match experience before progressing to the next level.
