Squash is an ideal sport for school age children with a season that is in sync with the school year (September to June) and after school training programs that allow for flexibility with busy schedules. The Evergreen Squash Academy in West Vancouver is the best junior squash program in BC and one of the top in Canada, with 7 junior boys and 6 junior girls ranked in the top 10 in BC in their respective age categories, as well as several nationally and internationally ranked elite juniors.
