In support of the Dunlop Mini-Court’s debut tour around Ontario this summer to grow the sport and maximize Olympic awareness, we are launching “Support the Court Day” on April 28th! On this day folks can support in two significant ways:
1) Rent an hour of court time on Squash Canada’s “The Power Court”, an all-glass court erected at the Toronto Cricket Club. Bring 1-3 training partners, a group of friends, colleagues, or practice solo on court with a coach. Use this time to prepare for nationals with limited access to practice on an all-glass court or provide your colleagues with an unforgetable experience playing squash on the same court that hundreds of professional players have used. Inquire separately to Lynsey at Lyates@squashontario.com if you’d like to hire a Squash Professional for coaching during your session (additional fees will apply). Court rental will also include:
A tax receipt for the full amount of your court rental; and
A ticket to the evening’s exhibition matches featuring Hollie Naughton (career best of World #16) and Nikki Todd (career best of World #49) and Canadian National Team athletes.
2) Donate to Squash Ontario’s Lee Hanebury Junior Squash Fund. All donations of $1,000 or more will receive a promotion code for a one time purchase of racquet sport products from the HEAD website at their Pro/VIP/Staff rates. This includes all racquet sports (Squash, Pickelball, Tennis, Padel) for racquets, string, accessories, bags, and footwear. Donations will receive a tax receipt. This offer will end on April 28th at 11:59 p.m.
Any donations of $1,000 or more received prior to April 29th will have the option of getting their name/logo/brand on the Mini-Court for the summer!
Why are we Supporting the Court?
Squash Ontario is hitting the road this summer with our Dunlop Mini Court Summer Tour in an effort to grow the sport. This is our debut full season with a team of staff on the road for eight weeks of the summer.
Over 8,650 people were introduced to the sport through our Dunlop Mini Courts in 2024. In 2025, our goal is to quadruple that number with a full summer long traveling court team!

Our mobile squash experience will travel to multiple cities, partnering with local clubs, special events, and festivals to introduce new players to the sport. The mini court provides an easy and accessible way for everyone—kids, families, and newcomers—to step on court and experience the thrill of squash firsthand. Whether you’ve played before or are picking up a racquet for the first time, this tour is all about having fun, getting active, and celebrating squash’s Olympic journey.
As this is our inaugural full season we are fundraising to help with the cost of travel, staffing, and equipment.
