  • Mass Squash News Massachusetts Squash Newsletter President’S Letter
    www.ma-squash.org Winter 2010 Mass Squash News Massachusetts Squash Newsletter President’s Letter This is the most active time of the year for squash. The leagues are at the mid-point, several junior events occurred over the holidays, the high school and college seasons are underway, and the annual state skill level and age group tourneys are about to start. I hope you are getting out there to play! In addition to bringing you the latest on the various squash fronts, this newsletter gives special attention to the many good things happening for junior squash in Massachusetts. We are particularly proud of these programs, which have shown substantial growth in both program offerings and members. The 16-member, all-volunteer MA Squash Junior Committee, led by Tom Poor, is a driving force for much of this success. The Committee has run/will be running 8 sanctioned tournaments this season, several at the national level. A schedule of the tourneys this past/upcoming season on our website can give you an idea of how much high-level competitive squash is available to our juniors. The Junior Committee also runs two free Junior League round robin programs, one for beginner-to-intermediate players, and one for high school players. The round robins are run on weekends at the Harvard Murr Center and Dana Hall Shipley Center courts respectively, and are frequently oversubscribed due to their popularity with both the players and their parents. Thanks to Azi Djazani and the Junior League volunteers for making this program such a great success.
