Who Is Squash Nick? Look Him Up In The Squash Glossary!

What would happen if you wandered onto the squash court for the very first time and played a few points with an experienced player for fun?

Well, you'd quickly begin to see how much fun the sport can be, and you might begin to appreciate how physically demanding it can be. And you might hear some unfamiliar words and phrases...

For example, if you managed to hit the ball to the front wall so that the ball next bounced right into the crack between the floor and the side wall, you'd probably hear your partner say "Nice Nick!"

Weird, huh? Especially if your name isn't Nick!

Luckily, there's a handy squash glossary to get us all on the same page, which is especially helpful for a worldwide sport such as squash.
