Squash Ireland has launched a comprehensive Club Governance and Development Toolkit, a pivotal resource designed to empower squash clubs. This toolkit provides essential guidance and practical tools to enhance club operations, ensuring sustainable growth and effective management.
The toolkit covers topics from starting a club or a junior section, to managing finances, volunteers and members, from club committee and meetings, to marketing and communication.
This initiative aligns with Squash Ireland's Strategic Plan for 2022-2027 “Connect the Dot” - strategic pillar for Participation and Growth - , aiming to modernise and professionalise the sport nationwide. By equipping clubs with these resources, we strive to create vibrant, multi-generational facilities that position squash as an accessible and healthy lifestyle choice for all.
Squash Ireland CEO Scott Graham promoted the delivery of a club development toolkit. “Clubs and volunteers are the engine room for the development and growth of sport.” Scott commented. “Through this toolkit, we aim to provide a range of resources that will benefit club committees and volunteers in their mission to get more people of all ages, abilities, and backgrounds playing the great game of squash.”
Squash Irland encourage all club administrators, coaches, and members to explore the toolkit and leverage its contents to foster a thriving squash community.
