Students in StreetSquash are grouped by age and grade into teams of between twenty and thirty students. Starting in 6th grade, StreetSquashers study, train, and travel as a team for the duration of each school year all the way through 12th grade.
StreetSquash is a great opportunity for each student to develop individually and as a team member. By the time students graduate high school, many of them have been teammates for 7 years.
