Squash - Girls Varsity
Girls squash has a strong tradition at Berkshire School, with a demanding interscholastic schedule that features perennial rivals like Suffield, Westminster, Millbrook, Hotchkiss, and Canterbury. The Bears also participate in High School Nationals, with our season culminating at the NEISA championships. Berkshire won the Class C championship in 2016 and now competes in Class B, playing in the newly renovated Soffer Athletic Center which features 10 squash courts. The facility has hosted the New England Championships, as well as exhibition matches featuring professional players.
In addition, former world No. 1 squash player Nick Matthew, Berkshire's squash ambassador, helps develop training plans and to ensure tournament preparation. Berkshire coaches support student-athletes throughout the college application process, and graduates have gone on to successful squash careers at Bowdoin, Colby, Colombia, Connecticut College, Hamilton, Hobart & William Smith, Northeastern, and St. Lawrence in the past decade.
