Another successful season is coming to a close and we were able to acknowledge our outstanding junior community at our annual awards banquet. Their dedication to squash was demonstrated last weekend as Ontario's (and beyond) top juniors, coaches, and families took over The Club at White Oaks for the 2023 Assante Wealth Management Ontario Junior Open Championships.

Mayfair Lakeshore and Head Professional Manu Dutt played host to the 2023 YouFirst Financial Ontario Open Championships this past weekend. Courts were taken over by 120 of Ontario’s top players who competed for a provincial title in 14 different divisions.

The Allen Lambert Galleria at Brookfield Place will once again host the world’s best squash players after a 20-year hiatus as the 2023 edition of the Canadian Women’s Open presented by Slaight Music returns from March 26th – 30th.

A record-breaking 15 teams and just under 100 participants competed in two divisions at this year's Portage M&A Advisory Ontario Regional Masters Team Championships, our largest to date! No stranger to hosting some of Ontario's top events, the Club at White Oaks and tournament chair Matt Easingwood ensured all players had an amazing time, on and off the court.

Squash players from all over the country descended on Charlottetown, PEI, to compete in the 2023 Canada Winter Games, which takes place every four years. The event was held from February 18-25 with the Individuals played from Sunday to Tuesday, while Wednesday through Saturday was the Team Event. 

The Squash Ontario junior community is truly where the “leaders of tomorrow play junior squash today”; a very special collection of student athletes and young people making a difference in the world from around the province. We will once again recognize the brightest lights of 2022-23 in sportsmanship, on-court excellence, commitment to improvement and coaching achievement. 

Although we are used to competing as individuals in squash, the last 5 weeks has seen an unprecedented amount of team events. Starting 2023 off with the Canadian Men’s & Women’s Teams in Regina, followed by the Canadian Masters Teams in PEI, it’s now the juniors turn to switch it up! 

The countdown is on!

It's just two short months until this year's Jim Mason Cup High School Team Tournament.

The 2023 OUA Championships were hosted by Queen’s University in Kingston this past weekend. A strong Western Men’s line up and coach Chris Hanebury kept Hall of Famer Jack Fairs’ legacy intact by winning their 39th straight OUA championships – the longest such streak in North American sports. They defeated a very strong University of Toronto led by league MVP Ali Shalaby.
