SquashUP Reenergizes the Sport in Germany
Squash Up, an initiative designed to revitalise squash in Hamburg and beyond, has been launched by former German champion Simon Frenz, squash player Martin Meyer, and Ralph Faust, a lecturer at Fresenius University.
This dynamic trio—working in collaboration with the Hamburg Squash Association and under the strategic guidance of the German Squash Federation —aims to create a scalable model that can be replicated across Germany.
Currently, Squash Up focuses on two main pillars:
-
Teacher training for school-based squash programs, and
-
“Squash Up! Nights” – social events aimed at engaging university students.”
