Squash Stars - 2023

What is Squash Stars?
Aimed at 5-11 year olds, Squash Stars is our new junior programme at Blackheath Squash Club. starting on 10th September 2022 that builds fundamental skills and confidence, encouraging kids to reach for the stars on and off court. This six-week junior beginner’s programme focuses on guiding children to collect stardust in skills such as hand-eye coordination, racket work, movement, balance and match play. The more stardust they have, the brighter they’ll shine! Each Squash Stars session is led by our trained leader, [insert name here] and will give your child the chance to explore, play, and make friends in a fun and safe setting. We want to help them soar in every aspect of their life and that starts with a positive experience with sport.


What does your Squash Star get?
For just £42, your star will get six sessions and a kit bag which includes a racket, ball, Squash Stars t-shirt and a pair of goggles straight to your door.


Why should my child try Squash Stars?
Squash will leave your child beaming from ear to ear. As it’s suitable for kids of all backgrounds, shapes, and sizes, squash provides an inclusive space where they can truly belong. It’s also an indoor sport, so they can avoid the unpredictable British weather and stay warm on our courts! By taking part in Squash Stars, your child will benefit in many ways:

  • They'll have tonnes of fun whilst being active and learning something new.
  • It’s an opportunity to make friends outside of school.
  • They can put their new skills into practice and head to the court as a family, giving you an opportunity for extra quality time together.
  • The sessions boost confidence and encourages them to reach for the stars.

Alex won a close first game 11/9 but Abhishek fought to win the second game 11/4. Alex went on to win the next two games and win the match by three games to one. Well done to Alex and Abhishek and to the fifty players that entered the tournament.
