Squash Canada (SC)

The squash federation in Canada

Squash Canada, originally formed as the Canadian Squash Racquets Association in 1915, is the national governing body and a full member of the World Squash Federation. It operates through a network of Provincial/Territorial Squash Associations across every province and territory (AB, BC, MB, NB, NL, NS, NT, NU, ON, PE, QC, SK); joining a provincial/territorial association also makes a player a member of Squash Canada. The federation runs the national competitive calendar (Canadian Junior, Senior and Doubles/Mixed Doubles Championships, plus North American doubles and international events), maintains Canadian rankings and a Club Locker rating system, fields national junior, NextGen and senior squads, and delivers coach and official certification programs (singles and doubles officiating, long-term development, anti-doping education) alongside a Canadian Squash Hall of Fame and awards program.
