By introducing squash in a gym, kids gain exposure to squash without having to leave their school. Even without sidewalls, kids get a feel for the strategy and appeal of the sport. In a two hour visit I had squash in front of 120 kids. I’ve found this to be an effective vehicle to promote junior programming in our city. -- Andrew Mount, Club Pro at the London Squash Racquets Club
