2018 Japan & Hong Kong Junior Opens

Is your child going to play in the 2018 Japan Junior Open or Hong Kong Junior Open this summer? I'm officially coming and representing St. Michales University School on a 2 week tour. We have a few kids participating and some others who are interested in the school playing. If you are interested to learn more about St. Michaels and our squash program I would be happy to set up a meeting with you or simply have a chat during 1 of the events and of course I'd love to watch your kid play. 

St. Michaels is a boarding and day school in Victoria, British Columbia on the west coast of Canada. I'm finishing up my 7thyear of coaching at the school. We have 3 coaches, 4 courts, 1 middle school competitive team and 3 senior school competitive teams. Each team has between 8-12 kids with a total of 30-35 on the 4 competitive teams and another hundred or so that play recreationally. 

The competitive teams train 3 x 1.5 hours as a team per week and run a weekly junior league and offer private lessons. We take a group to a number of tournaments each year across British Columbia as well as the Canadian Junior Open and the Canadian Junior Nationals. Our season runs from September to March and until Nationals in April for those participating in it that season. This year we have 8 kids playing. We have 2 kids seeded 3/4 and a number of kids ranked in Canada. On top of the school
squash programs I also run spring break camps and 4 x 2 hour training sessions weekly for all of July and August. We have a number of alumni who are and have played on a number of different collegiate squash teams in the Canada and the United States.
