Whether your child is simply interested in learning a new sport and developing their athletic abilities or they have a passion for competition, Mayfair Parkway will provide the development and training they need to achieve success in squash.
Active Start (Ages 4 – 7)
This program is designed to develop strong motor skills as well as increased hand-eye coordination. Key areas of focus include throwing, catching, basic athletic movements and racquet skills. It’s a great way to get your child active while introducing them to the game of squash.
Squash FUN-damentals (Ages 7-17)
This program focuses on basic skill development and fundamental movement abilities. Juniors demonstrating ability will be well prepared to enter round robin and house league play or pursue junior squash careers at the Bronze and Silver level. Parents should encourage 1-2 hours of additional unstructured court time per week to increase skill development.
Junior Pro (Ages 9-17)
Junior Pro’s should be playing regular Junior Silver competitions as well as Junior Gold level events. All players are trained to improve their technique, tactics and overall level of play through solo and partner drills, conditioned games and match play. All Junior Pros are expected to participate in club leagues and would benefit from regular private lessons. A typical weekly program at this stage should equal 4-6 hours on court.
Junior Elite (Ages 12-17)
Junior Elite players have demonstrated a commitment to squash and have chosen squash as their primary sport. These are Gold and Provincial level players who are striving to achieve success and reach their goals. Individual programs are designed and monitored to include 11-15 hours of squash programming including group & private lessons, house league and T&D matches. Squash specific physical and mental training plans are also incorporated into a balanced training program.
Schools Squash Outreach Program
This new initiative is designed to get squash into the local area schools and introduce students to this life-long sport. The program provides curriculum and activities for physical education in schools and encourages new players to join our program.
