How old were you when you discovered squash and how did you get into it?
I was around 9 or 10 when I started playing. I lived in a country town where most kids grew up playing three to four different sports. Squash was great as it could be played all year round unlike softball, netball and tennis (all of which were outdoor sports). I have played all four sports for most of my life.
What do you love most about the sport?
I love the tournaments. A great way to play and meet new people. As well as seeing a bit more of the state than you might normally.
Why do you think more women should give it a go?
A lot of women that haven’t played squash before think it looks too hard but really it’s not. Unlike tennis you don’t have to chase your balls all over the place LOL. Squash is such a brilliant workout. I love the mental and physical challenge every time I walk on the court. More ladies need to give it a go!
