Junior Board Mission

The SoCal Squash Board recognizes the importance of selecting, mentoring, and providing high school athletes with opportunities to develop leadership skills and contribute to SoCal Squash. We believe that robust participation by junior players is vital to the growth of squash in Southern California. To that end, the Junior Board consists of 8 invited players representing each region of the SoCal Squash District: Santa Barbara (2), Los Angeles (2), Orange County (2), and San Diego (2).

The leadership structure of the Junior Board is led by a designated member of the SoCal Squash Board. They meet every other month (6 times/year) with the Board Lead to review progress on communications, Junior League, PLayLA, and other initiatives.  The Junior Board are non-voting and serve a 12-month term beginning April 15th of each year. That being said, outstanding members may be invited back for a second term!

Junior Representatives actively support SoCal Squash by :

• Assisting the Communications Committee with the monthly newsletter and social media posts
• Recruiting players and participating in league matches through the SoCal Squash Junior League
• Volunteering as assistant coaches to introduce squash to new players with PlayLA
• Attending all Junior Board meetings and participating in discussions
• Representing the best interests of the junior squash community
• Supporting the cultivation of junior-level competition while upholding US Squash and SoCal Squash values
