Today is World Squash Day. Hopefully you have found the time to have fun on a squash court playing #Squash57 (easy to start, hard to stop), aka #Racketball ... and occasionally as the #Padel of #Squash

In 2025, US Open Tennis changed their Mixed Doubles Championships into a popularity/reality/celebrity fast-four/quick-fire contest. In 2026 it was more of the same, most matches under 1 hour. Undermining, underwhelming and almost unbelievable. Shame. #usopentennis #mixeddoubles

Similar to #Padel and #Pickleball, #Squash57 is a 'racket & ball' sport played on a #squash court, a social game that is easy to learn and get a fun workout. Squash57 is a lifetime sport that is 'easy to start, hard to stop'. @UK_Racketball @englandsquash @WorldSquash @karakaluk

#Padel shots have #Spanish names like 'vibora' and 'chiquita'. Does this half-volley winner out through the door have a Spanish name?

2.5 hours on court at the @UK_Racketball run @karakaluk sponsored #racketball / #Squash57 Nationals over the weekend and the matches just got tougher and tougher ... but always FUN. @englandsquash

The British born sport of squash will be at #LA28 but so far in 2025 the #BBC have published less than 1 squash article/month and 60% of those were thanks to the efforts of @karakaluk sponsored @JoelMakin who won the #PSA Squash Tour Finals ... bbc.com/sport/squash/article…

It was a long day on court at the @karakaluk sponsored @EssexSra #Squash57 Singles Championships with over 3 hours on court, burning close to 2k calories...plan is to be walking again by Wednesday.

There is no shortage of live #Padel on the TV with many a chiquita, bajada and vibora but what about the 'servicio de retorno fuera de la red a través de la puerta' which is probably in need of a snappier name just in case it's ever seen again! @karakaluk pura suerte.

An excellent day out at @rocketpadel Ilford participating in the GB Padel Camp, run by the charismatic @JakeBewley11 ... @karakaluk was awarded the EOD honour in the form of an aspirationally sized ROCKET shirt.

If you were lucky enough to own a residential property and your neighbour broke down your garden fence, moved their caravan into your back garden and threw rocks through your windows then what would you think should be done that would result in a "just and lasting peace"?
