The students, who have been selected from the country’s 15 urban squash programs, will play squash, visit landmarks of American history, and meet with individuals in government, journalism, education and the nonprofit community. Among other highlights, students will meet UN Ambassador Samantha Power, Representative John Lewis of Georgia, and Environmental Defense Fund CEO Fredd Krupp. They will also play squash with Governor of Massachusetts Deval Patrick in Boston and Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York in Washington, DC. The group will visit Walden Pond, sleep in dorms at Harvard University, walk the Freedom Trail in Boston, and tour the United Nations and New York Times Building in New York City and the U.S. Capitol and the White House in Washington, DC. Squash Squash was founded in the 1860s at the Harrow School, a private boarding school in England. Twenty years later the first court was built in the United States at the St. Paul’s School in Concord, New Hampshire. The game is played in 180 countries by more than 10 million people, and the countries where it is most popular include England, Australia, Malaysia, and Egypt. For most of its history in the United States, the sport has been played primarily at independent schools, Northeastern universities, and private clubs.
