At Squash360.com we would like to do more than just cover the scores.
There is a quote from Milton Friedman - Nobel laureate economist - that we believe applies to our cherished game and shapes how we would like to grow this site: "... only a crisis - actual or perceived - produces real change. When that crisis occurs, the actions that are taken depend on the ideas that are lying around."
With these thoughts in mind we invite YOUR ideas, suggestions, tips, tools, resources, profiles or stories. Together we can foster a heightened spirit of sharing, co-operation and collaboration to strengthen and grow our sport.

Are there some ideas, techniques, strategies we can learn from or adapt from this US Tennis iniative? Click on logo below.
I believe sometimes the people in our sport choose not to try or embrace ideas because of a lack of resources, it requires too much work, concerns that they will not be able to execute and sustain properly or sadly because the ideas were not conceived by themselves and they can not get all the glory. What do you think, add a comment below.

Ideas don't have to be big or grandiose . . . Describing Squash
We thought the following text communicates the appeal of our game and could be applied in a number of applications to attract new players (posters, newsletters, e-mails, recreation program catalogues, etc)
Is it for you?
If you have ever had a chat with a squash player you would have heard, “Yeah, it’s great, it’s good exercise". What they don’t tell you is that every match is a battle. Or a barrell of laughs. An exercise in attrition, precision and execution. Or whole heap of fun. What they don’t tell you is that there is as much ground covered in a 45 minute hit as there is in a 90 minute jog, but without the boredom. Unlike other sports, there is no ‘dead’ time between points, there is no change of ends, no add breaks, no substitutions.
It’s as much you against yourself as it is you against your opponent. It's a sprint and a marathon and all sorts of fun! It’s inexpensive and easy to get playing.
Call into your local Squash Brisbane centre and we can get you swinging in no time. Bring a friend, come alone or grab a group of colleagues and make an afternoon of it. We can even customise leagues for you and your friends. Just want to spectate? That’s fine. Most Centres are licensed so grab a seat, grab a cold one and watch the mileage clock up. Girls, guys and kids. Get on board.
