Building on the level of interest generated in recent years at Birkenhead and Glenfield colleges, a number of local primary schools enrolled for in-school programmes in 2012.

Harbour Sport have now designated Beach Haven & Birkenhead as a target region for squash programmes in 2013 which should offer additional funding to participating schools.

The Beach Haven sports centre now offers a range of after-school coaching programmes under Paul's direction. Additionally, a number of college students now participate in the successful Sunday morning JETS competition (see separate web pages).

Squash is likely to be a focal sport across the Beach Haven/ Birkenhead area over the next few years and the range of schools now participating offers the prospect of continuity for youngsters commiting themselves to the sport.
