Play Squash Academy

A Message from Jay Naseem, Owner/Founder

Squash and other individual activities provided by independent businesses during these extraordinary times, have provided an opportunity for student athletes and their families to bring some normalcy back into their lives. While public agencies and team activities struggle to adapt, local business owners and independent pursuits are continuing to maintain the economy and the mental health of their clients the best way they know how: with the grit and determination characteristic to the American Entrepreneur. From in-person activities like lessons and tournaments, Zoom workouts and college evaluations, to extensive cleaning and safety measures; we’ve been able to implement protocols to continue to bring our valued service to our clients and keep our staff employed.

Our community business will never be replaced by a big box alternative. We are rooted in the community we serve and understand the privilege and responsibility this bears. It is with great pride that we provide a service that grounds and develops young people, contributes to family bonding, employs local artists and supports local businesses.
