SUPPORTIN SPORT FUND
JERSEY SQUASH & RACKETBALL ASSOCIATION
Jersey Squash & Racketball Association (JSRA) were awarded £3,500 in Round 1 of the 2025 fund, to provide expanded junior programmes, inclusive school initiatives, and a call for sustainable funding to unlock the sport’s full potential. The initiatives are expected to directly benefit over 500 participants through the award received by the SUPPORTIN SPORT Fund.
With a renewed focus on grassroots participation, the JSRA aims to deliver a 2-day-a-week schools programme targeting both primary and secondary schools—especially those in walking distance—while promoting inclusivity for girls, lower socio-economic groups, and those at risk of teenage drop-out. Enhanced use of Victoria College’s refurbished squash courts is also central to plans, offering coached sessions and upskilling PE staff. The JSRA recognises squash as an ideal sport for casual and time-pressed teens, and aims to create new social and competitive opportunities, such as leagues and after-school clubs. Increased funding would support coaching, marketing, and admin capacity, enabling wider participation and longer-term retention across all levels—from casual players to emerging elite talent.
