Volunteering
StreetSquash offers in-person volunteering opportunities both on the squash court and in the classroom. Volunteering with StreetSquash is very flexible. Volunteers can commit to as much as three days a week for more than three hours or as little as one day a week for one hour. This form allows volunteers to select their commitment for a half-year or full year and the age groups they are most comfortable working with. Below are more details that have to do with volunteer opportunities:
Volunteer Tutors: Tutors select subject areas in which they possess extensive knowledge and are matched with middle or high school students seeking help in those same areas. They work in one-hour sessions, primarily aiding students with homework assignments or answering questions on IXL, a learning platform offering assessments in various subjects. Tutors must be at least 16 years old.
Volunteer Squash Assistants: Under the guidance of StreetSquash coaches, volunteer squash assistants conduct drills on the courts and offer tips and coaching to students as needed. Volunteers usually work with groups of 3 to 5 students at a time. Prior experience playing squash is required, ideally as part of a high school or college team. Squash Assistants must have the ability to teach squash fundamentals to students. Squash assistants must be at least 16 years old.
