Centurion Junior Squash offers group squash lessons for junior players. Our youngest players are in Grade R, and we coach players up to Grade 12. We generally keep primary school and high school players separate. We place players in a class where they will best fit according to their playing strength. We teach at various squash courts in Centurion and Midstream. Lessons are once per week and are 45 minutes long for our very young players, 60 minutes long for most of our lessons, and 90 minutes long for selected invitation classes.
Lessons are either early mornings or in the afternoons, after school. We don’t coach on Saturdays or Sundays. We may offer squash clinics during school holidays.
We have both open groups (players from different schools are together in a class), school groups (players from a specific school are together in a class), and invitation groups (players who have shown commitment and growth are invited to join these groups).
- The school groups are offered by Midstream College, Midstream Ridge Primary School, Hoërskool Zwarkop, Hoërskool Waterkloof, Afrikaans Hoër Seunskool, Southdowns College, Hoërskool Eldoraigne, and Wierdapark Laerskool. More details are below.
- The invitation groups are the Rising Stars, Shooting Stars, Shining Stars, Super Stars and Top Stars. More details are below.
IMPORTANT: Space is limited for each class. The number of players in each class is dependent on the number of courts available, and in the case of school classes, the budget allocated by the school.
