Head coach Geoff is competing at the 2026 World Squash Masters Championships in Perth Western Australia.

The second day of the 2026 World Squash Masters Championships got off to a strong start with both the men's and women's matches getting underway in Perth, Australia.

The NSW Squash Junior State Championships in Bega wound up on Sunday and it was a great weekend for the JETS Squash players, winning 4 titles in the under 11 and 13s boys and girls plus 2 runner ups and a 3rd.

Nathan and Ruisha were very impressive in their under 13 wins, just recently moving up an age group but were still way too good.

Owen and Elka both winning their 1st state title in under 11s, a fantastic achievement by both these promising youngsters.

JETS Squash had 19 players at the event with most performing well.
Stanley was runner up in the under 19 boys in a tough 5 set match vs Kasper, Benny B was runner up to Naveen in the under 15 boys and Annette C was 3rd in the under 15 girls.

Other notable efforts were Sean S, who played very well to finish 4th in the 17 boys, Keiran W who was 5th in under 17 boys after a poor 1st match but he really played well after that.

A lot of our younger players played in their 1st NSW Champs and learnt a lot from the experience, but mostly had a great time.

Most JETS players finished inside the top 8 placings which shows the depth within the program.

From the NSW Champs the NSW state Junior team was also chosen, with 9 JETS players being selected.

Girls
Fatimah K under 19s
Niah L-W under 17s
Annette C under 15s
Khadijah K under 15s
Ruisha C under 13s

Boys
Stanley C under 19s
Keiran W under 17s
Ben B under 15s
Nathan L under 13s

The NSW state team has a total of 24 players, with JETS having more than a 1/3 of the total team, and with another 7 players from Thornleigh making the team, it demonstrates the strength that both programs have within their ranks.

It was a long trip to and from Bega for all players, parents and coaches but the results, the friendships made, and the fun all players had makes it well worthwhile.

Thanks to The Khans for hosting the families for dinner on Saturday night, a fun evening for all.

The next JETS event is on the 9th August, so get your entries in asap - https://www.revolutionise.com.au/jetssquash/events/369354

This Refugee Week, JETS Squash is proud to celebrate the strength, resilience and achievements of people from refugee backgrounds.

Through our free Squash Girls Can program, migrant and refugee girls come together each week for squash, homework support, friendship and fun. The program is run by dedicated volunteers who believe every young person deserves the opportunity to belong, thrive and reach their potential.

What happens on court is about much more than sport. It is about building confidence, creating connections, supporting education and helping young people feel at home in their new community. Many of the girls arrive as strangers and leave as teammates and friends.

To all the girls, families, volunteers and supporters who make this program possible: thank you. We are proud to stand with refugee and migrant communities, not just during Refugee Week, but every week of the year.

JETS Squash players have had a fantastic 2 weeks of competition, at the Dural (silver) event 2 weeks ago and last weekend at the ACT juniors (Gold) winning
6 titles at Dural and 3 at ACT.

Stanley C won the under 19 titles at both without dropping a game, but was pushed in both but his variety and consistency helped maintain the perfect record.
Annette C won the under 15 at Dural and under 17 at ACT, also playing the under 19s where she beat a much higher ranked player, playing her best match of the event.
Keiran W a new addition to the JETS program won the under 17s at both and showed great improvement in his offensive game at ACT. I am looking forward to the next few months working with Keiran.
Ben B won the under 15s at Dural, but didn’t play ACT
Owen B won the under 11s at Dural, but didn’t play ACT
Ruisha C won the under 13s at Dural, but didn’t play ACT
Phillip C was runner up in a very good final vs Stan at ACT and finished 3rd at Dural. Phil played at an extremely high level in ACT and really challenged Stan, demonstrating his great improvement and is someone to watch out for over the next few months.
Sean S was 3rd in under 19s at ACT, having a good win over a more experienced player in the quarter finals, his 1st real result against a higher ranked player and shows his dedication is paying off.

Our youngest most inexperienced players:
Wes L and Jaden Z both gained great exposure and experience from the ACT event with Wes finishing 3rd and the boys had a great time making new friends.
Jerry C finished 5th in a strong under 13s comp at ACT and showed marked improvement in his game style.
Felix Z played some good squash throughout but lacked consistency which will come with more exposure to this level.

We had another great JETS family dinner on the Saturday night at LI Leong with approx. 22 parents and kids coming along, with some new faces and 1st timers who I’m sure had a good time and hopefully will attend many more to come.
It was nice to see our honorary JETS player Tina Ma again; Tina is a high-quality Victorian player who ventured up to ACT to play. Tina often joins the family dinner and won the under 19 girl’s event.

Thanks to Yan for her time and effort in taking the photos, another great array of shots.

Well done to all the parents who continue to support their youngsters helping their squash development by travelling to these events and giving up entire weekends, it’s a thankless task but fantastic commitment by all.

JETS next event is Sunday 7th June so get your entries in asap; limited spaces are still available and entries close tomorrow, Wednesday 3rd June.
