What is squash?
Squash is an extremely fast racquet sport held in gyms only. Two players share a court in which the walls are included. They take turns in hitting the ball and returning it to the field with the opponent unable to return it. Good concentration and a quick reaction are a key advantage.
Squash is a racquet sport like tennis; however; the running moves are typically significantly shorter and faster.
The Squash tournament is open to players at all levels of experience to compete for fun and medals. Register now to guarantee your spot on court. You don't want to miss this chance to play and party with your peers.
The tournament guarantees suspense and fun!
