These funds will go towards Squash & Racquetball Victoria's junior pathways, ranging from participation to high performance.

Introducing new players under the age of 13 to our sport is our number one priority. We have devised a marketing campaign to attract new children to try our sport via the Come-and-Try coaching programs. 

These will be run primarily during the summer school holidays. From previous experience, this method has been highly effective at a club level. Similar to other sports, we intend to deliver professional coaching and player packs, along with pathways setup for our new players to transition into.

For our current players, we are focused on establishing sustainable pathways where players support club activities, and have the ability to represent their regions and state. The Junior Performance Program delivered by Anthony Hill (former world #5) is accessible to our future Victorian talents, where we can provide the high-performance resources required to develop world class athletes.

Additionally, we are seeking to support our junior clubs to provide tailored resources to their specific needs. This can range from development coaching support and marketing assistance, to establishing a high performance training environment.
