Named by Forbes magazine as the top-ranked healthiest sport, squash is a great cardio workout that also provides ideal training for other sports. A lifetime sport, squash is a fun activity the whole family can participate in. A junior squash program, run by one of the area’s top squash pros, Connie Barnes will be held at Chevy Chase Athletic Club.
