2022-2023 Community Donation Support
Squash Ontario is a not-for-profit that relies on the support of our community donors and program sponsors to enable sport growth and athlete development programs that wouldn’t operate at all without it. With our current season now underway, we are pleased to share the below information about last year’s donations received, where the funds were allocated and we will be sharing our many exciting plans for 2024 that are already underway shortly.
Ontario Squash Volunteers Are Recognized!
The game of squash thrives when there is growth at the local and regional levels. Squash Ontario’s Community Awards program was created by the Board of Directors to recognize the contributions made by volunteers, corporations, officials, coaches and players at all levels of the game. Please join us in celebrating our recipients Gordon Campbell, Kitt Hanley, Rob Lefcoe and Howard Seto.
