ABOUT EKAPA SQUASH
Ekapa Squash is a grassroots to elite squash programme that empowers youth from under-resourced areas to become informed leaders in their communities through exposure to the game of squash, academic support and life skills training in order to help them navigate their daily lives.
"We are passionate about seeing young peoples lives transformed, teaching them to dream dreams that they never knew they could dream. Many are already leaders in their households, whether they realise it or not. We aim to help them realise how effective they could be as individuals and leaders in broader society."
​
"Squash is the vehicle. Education is the tool. Holisitic empowerment is the aim!"
