Anything else?
Juniors looking to take the next step up can get involved in playing tournaments or Junior pennants outside of our regular Monday program. Various clubs around the state host tournaments each month, whilst WA Squash is increasing their junior pennant competition in 2021 providing more juniors the chance to compete for their club! Blue Gum fits into the South Metro zone so our talented juniors have the chance to represent the Southern Starts team at the WA State Junior Age Zone Teams Championships in the July school holidays

To play events outside of juniors, players need to be registered with WA Squash, which is an additional $30 per year. This also provides them with insurance cover for injuries whilst on the squash court.
