Lifetime Membership
One of the ways that the Foundation hopes to carry out its work is by building up a membership base consisting of a group of like-minded squash and racquetball enthusiasts. Life-time members are dedicated to squash and racquetball; ambassadors who are a voice to the community and are as equally passionate about increasing participation, building awareness and enriching the experience for all.
Donors will be provided recognition of life membership if their tax deductible donation is $1,000 or more, and will receive invitations to attend events such as the upcoming 2019 Annual Dinner.
To become a member, please complete the membership form and post or email it to the Foundation.

Scholarships
The Foundation would like to offer an annual scholarship designed to nurture and assist a participant, coach or referee who show dedication and passion for the sport. The recipients aren’t necessarily those who show the most potential rather, these year-long programs are awarded based on the applicant’s current financial situation, commitment to their development and reinvestment in the squash and racquetball community. With comprehensive support from the board and sponsor, the scholarship allows participants to develop their sporting abilities and reach their goals.
Bequests
Bequests provide a simple yet incredibly powerful way for all past, present and future players and supporters of squash and racquetball in South Australia to make a valuable contribution to support the growth and long-term future of the sport and ensure future generations also have the privilege to enjoy a lifetime of recreational or competitive participation.
