Taoyuan Elementary School
The Taoyuan Elementary School squash program is one of our newest projects organized in January 2024, coached by Pearl Shaw, Daphne Chang, and Ray Pan. This program aims to introduce squash to kids in an underprivileged school in Taiwan, providing them with an opportunity to exercise. Our coaches teach the basic ground rules of squash, such as the serving zones, as well as the basic skills of squash, such as how to hit straight drives and volleys. So far, 3 of our coaches, Ray Pan, Pearl Shaw, and Daphne Chang are involved with organizing and hosting events at the Beitou Sports Center, and we hope to attract more students to join our program!
