Helping Muslim communities stay active, make connections and feel a sense of belonging
Designed especially for Muslim communities, Squash from the Mosque is a fun way to get active, improve your wellbeing, and meet new people.
The programme offers a friendly introduction to the sport, whether you’re new to it, returning after a break, or already active in other sports.
There’s no pressure, no expectations, and no experience required – just come along, have a go, and see what it’s all about.
A space where your faith is respected
We understand that trying a new sport can feel daunting. What to wear, who else will be there, and whether the environment will meet your needs: these are all things we know you might worry about.
That’s exactly why we created Squash from the Mosque. Every session’s designed to be culturally appropriate and delivered with sensitivity to faith and modesty requirements. The whole programme’s centred on trust and belonging, so you feel understood and respected every time you step on court.
Depending on your local venue, you might be able to participate in men-only, women-only, or girls-only sessions. We also form strong links with local mosques, offer support for modest clothing choices, and run sessions at times that accommodate prayer.
Stay active and feel connected
Squash is a brilliant way to move your body. It’s fast, fun, easy to pick up, and you can get a great workout in a short space of time. Plus, as it’s an indoor sport, you can play in comfort all year round.
