Squash world
Squash is one of most fun and fit sports in the world, not a lot people have a chance to experience it, as it need a high fitness, and hard to improve to advanced level, ive been involved in this since almost 20 years, i can coach also .. will be great if we can form a group of squash players, a tournament also possible, there are few options in Amman, where we can reserve times at certain clubs. I can also have two or three players and train them for free, I enjoy doing that, and feel good to help introducing this fantastic sport to new comers to Jordan …

Looking forward friends,
