Little Belters

Juniors

The Northern junior squash programme steers youngsters from participation through to performance via our Golden Thread approach.

Starting with our Little Belters programme, there is opportunity for juniors of all levels to develop, thrive, and most importantly enjoy, playing squash at The Northern.

For the more talented juniors, our performance programme is led by world renowned coach Annette Pilling and currently features several nationally ranked juniors who represent the club at the top end of the biggest national junior events.

For more information, call reception on 0161 445 3093 or email Head of Squash.

School Programmes

School Programme: The Northern School Programme works with several local schools both in curriculum and afterschool, feeding directly into the existing junior setup.

Rackets Cubed: The Northern are delighted to have partnered with charity organisation Rackets Cubed, offering integrated programmes for Squash, STEM education, and Nutrition for local kids at a disadvantage.

Working with Cavendish Primary School, our existing programme has received an enthusiastic response from all involved and looks set to expand in 22/23.

For more information about our programmes, call reception on 0161 445 3093 or email Head of Squash.
