  • Squash Program
    Youth Squash Program What is Squash? According to an article published in Men’s Fitness Magazine: You'll need a racquet, an opponent, a ball, and an enclosed court—most colleges and large gyms have them. Alternate hitting the ball off the front wall until someone loses the point. This happens when you allow the ball to bounce twice, or when you whack it out of bounds—below the 19-inch strip of metal (the "tin") along the bottom of the front wall, or above the red line around the top of the court. First one to 11 points wins the game; best of three or five wins the match. It may sound simple, but Squash is a challenging and rewarding game.

  • Commonwealth Games: Friendly Rivalry
    Parliament of Australia Department of Parliamentary Services RESEARCH PAPER SERIES, 2013–14 6 November 2013 Commonwealth Games: friendly rivalry Dr Rhonda Jolly Social Policy Section Executive summary • Elite athletes from the Commonwealth meet every four years to compete in the multi-sport event known as the Commonwealth Games. • While the Commonwealth Games boasts many similarities to the Olympics, it differs in the more relaxed and ‘friendly’ spirit of competition, which is a highlight of most events. • The spirit of friendship has not always prevailed, however, and there have been serious rifts between Commonwealth nations that have manifested themselves in boycotts of the Games. While these have threatened at times to dissolve, or seriously weaken the Commonwealth, solutions have always been found and the Commonwealth and its Games have endured. • Australia was one of a group of nations that first participated in competition between Britain and its colonies in 1911; it has participated in the Games in all its forms since that time. It is acknowledged as the most successful of the Commonwealth nations in this sporting competition—winning over 200 more medals than its nearest rival. • Australian cities have hosted the Games four times. While there have been some hiccoughs in the staging of each event—some social, and some economic—Sydney, Perth and Brisbane have all received accolades and Melbourne was praised as ‘the best’ following the 2006 Games. • In 2018 Australia will host another Commonwealth Games—on Queensland’s Gold Coast. • This paper looks back at how the Games came to be, Australia’s experience of staging the event and contemplates how the Gold Coast will deal with that legacy and surmount perceived and unexpected complications that will inevitably surface before the 2018 Games’ Opening Ceremony.

  • GEOFF HUNT – a 'Greatest Ever'
    GEOFF HUNT – a ‘greatest ever’ Geoffrey Brian (“Geoff”) Hunt was born into a squash family, in Melbourne, Australia, on March 11, 1947. Indeed, an early harbinger of his greatness was when, at the age of 15, he clinched the state of Victoria’s men’s championship by overcoming his closest rival in a very hard-fought five-game final. His rival? His older brother Bill. His father Vic and mother Connie were both fitness aficionados who took up squash when they were in search of a sport that would increase their physical activity. Soon the father had introduced both his son Bill and daughter Patricia to the sport, and they all enjoyed success at it. Vic went on to win several Victorian state and Australian senior veteran’s titles, and Bill achieved the men’s number one ranking in Victoria and was ranked as high as eight in Australia. Patricia, Geoff Hunt’s younger sister, also became the women’s top-ranked player in Victoria, competing in state, regional and national tournaments around Australia. With that family background, it might be said that Hunt was destined to be a very good squash player. But he became one of the greatest ever in the sport, showing an inner drive and grit that became legendary and led to his many on-court successes. While off the court his quiet manner, limelight avoidance and professional manner made him a real role model for the pros following in his wake. His accomplishments are stellar, and include being ranked world #1 from 1975 to 1980.
