The s annual Women's Squash Week 2023 is coming up from Sept. 17 to 26.

While provincially, only 27% of squash players are women, the 撸奶社区Squash Club maintains a 49% female membership, according to the local club's Dara Sklar.

"A big part of that comes from the success of our annual Women's Squash Week, where we offer free squash intro sessions, as well as a couple of 'mix, match and mingle' game-play sessions over the course of a week," she told The 撸奶社区 in an email. 

All of the events throughout the week are created, coached and hosted by women.

The one-hour intro sessions each have six women, with two female coaches. 

The sessions are designed specifically for players who are new to the game. 

There is also an opportunity for open round-robin play for more intermediate-level women players who want to come down and meet new opponents, Sklar said.
