I begin by introducing myself as a squash player and coach! I discovered squash in 2010 when the courts were set up at our club. I still remember my first game; it was against a former professional squash player, and I managed to make her laugh at my playing style. But this first match motivated me to explore more secrets of this sport. I started training, searching for videos and websites about squash, and in 2013, I succeeded in defeating the lady in question.

I then participated in tournaments across the country; I finished on the podium in some and was glad to have participated in others. Encouragingly, the number of squash enthusiasts has grown from year to year. In 2014, I obtained the international coach diploma, and since then, I have been teaching squash at our club for both beginners and advanced players, adults, and children.

Squash is a dynamic way to spend leisure time and, at the same time, to maintain an enviable form. It is one of the best practices to combat sedentary lifestyles and obesity. In a game session, you can burn around 1000 calories, playing with the right opponent. Additionally, playing this sport improves coordination, flexibility, and agility, helps release negative energy and stress, puts you in a good mood, and energizes you.

Despite prejudices, squash has a low risk of injury as long as you respect the basic rules. A significant advantage is that it can be practiced regardless of the weather. If I've convinced you to try this sport, I look forward to meeting you! 🏸
