Nashville in recent years has not been closely tied to squash; however, it has just built the first squash center in the history of the city. The three state of the art courts are located at Montgomery Bell Academy, one of the premier private schools in the area. They have recruited Dylan Cunningham, an American ex-professional player and former assistant coach at Drexel University, to lead the squash charge. Dylan is a highly knowledgeable coach with 3 years of experience on the PSA world tour and is now taking on the challenge of growing squash in Nashville from the grassroots level.
Nashville, itself, is a vibrant and quickly expanding city. With the right leadership, it would be the perfect market to grow the game of squash. The Montgomery Bell facility will be an ideal host given its large and open viewing space behind the courts as well as the school’s newly found enthusiasm for the game within the community.
Get your Nashville hot chicken sandwiches, an ice cold Modelo, and buckle up for this monster of an event coming to the city this spring.
