The 2022 Squash Doubles Week aims to engage players of all ages and skill levels for events, round robins and clinics to promote and grow the doubles game.
Facilities are encouraged to host local activity that highlights the social aspects of doubles to get players back on court after the summer, reconnect with old friends, and introduce new players to the sport.
