Policies
At Middlesex Junior Squash, we want everyone, including families, players and volunteers who participate to make our County set-up possible, to be fully aware of what it is we are trying to achieve.
Our policy page gives access to the Middlesex Junior Squash and England Squash and policy documents. You'll find information about a variety of topics that are all designed to keep all participants safe and informed whilst playing, working and partaking in the sport that we all love.
Code of Conduct
Our aim is to provide an environment where all those involved in squash (juniors, players and coaches, referees) are fully supported, treated fairly, with respect for each other and on an equal basis. We require all participants, parents, and coaches to adhere to the Middlesex Junior Squash code of conduct (https://middlesexjuniorsquash.co.uk/policies/) which lists out our expectations on behaviour.
Travel & What's App Groups
Before county events, the coach or lead group member may set up a temporary Whatsapp group for parents and coaches to arrange lift shares, communicate start times, rendezvous points for the duration of the event only. If you do not want to participate in the what's app group for tournaments, please let us know at the point of registration.
Funding
Middlesex Junior Squash relies heavily upon grants, memberships, sponsorship to keep everything running smoothly. We are looking for Tournament sponsors and Partners to help fund the running of our activities. Please contact us if you would like to discuss sponsorship of the County and would like further information.
Parent Engagement
We are also keen to have as many parents as possible involved in all aspects of the county, from helping us run county competitions, to fund raising, marketing/PR/advertising and parent player liaison. Please contact us if you would like to be involved.
