Womens Fund
Support the growth of Women’s Squash!
US Squash supports women’s play in a variety of ways including hosting Women’s Squash Week each September with 400 women participating in 40 cities in 2016, and the Women’s Team Championship (Howe Cup) each fall.
The Women’s Fund provides financial support to aid the growth of women’s squash initiatives, turning them into strong and sustainable programs through the Women’s Fund Grant program. The grant program targets development of new program formats and the development of women’s squash in new geographic areas, with the ultimate goal of creating self-supporting programs that continually expose the game to new women players in addition to supporting and marketing to the existing player base.
