Boys’ Squash

Congratulations to Youssif Mostafa '22 on becoming a 2019-2020
New Jersey (NJ) prep state champion.

Blair Academy's squash program was founded in 1993. Nearly 70 Blair students play organized squash each year, filling out competitive girls’ and boys’ varsity, junior varsity and thirds sides in the winter, as well as heavily subscribed off-season introductory and developmental programs in the spring and fall. We train and play on seven international courts in Tracy Hall. 

The interscholastic squash season begins in late November and runs through February, when Mid-Atlantic Prep League (MAPL) team tournaments are held. Varsity and junior varsity players are encouraged to participate in squash camps and tournaments during the summer and fall prior to the season to improve their skills. Typically, 10 players make the varsity team and nine or 10 play on the JV. The varsity schedule includes approximately 16 matches, including one or two team tournaments.

Our interscholastic teams play other MAPL and non-league teams, including Hill, Lawrenceville, Delbarton, Hackley, St. Andrews, Poly Prep, Riverdale and Mercersburg. Other matches are contested against an assortment of college and university club teams, most recently from Princeton and Penn, and teams from urban squash programs such as City Squash (NYC) and Metro Squash (Chicago). Graduates of the Blair squash program have played college squash for Bates, Bowdoin, Bucknell, Williams, Navy, MIT, NYU, Washington University, Colby and Hobart.

Blair seeks both experienced and inexperienced players who love the thrill of a game that combines the intellectual challenge of chess with the exhilaration of being pushed to your physical limits. Prospective students are invited to take time during their visit to see the courts and introduce themselves or contact director of Blair squash programs Jim Moore.
