Jack Frisken

Squash

  1. Grantee | November 2022

Jack was only 2 or 3 years old when he first got on the squash court and from that point on the challenge for his Mum was getting him off the court. In 2020 Jack was placed 6th in the U15 Junior Nationals, in 2021 was selected in the NZ Secondary Schools team (Year 9/10) and in December this year he is heading off to the Canadian and US Junior National Championships with a group of high performance players. In the next couple of years Jack is aiming to make the NZ Junior team to compete at the World Junior Championships. His referees talk about his discipline, commitment and passion for the sport. Jack is passing on his love of squash to younger players and brings a “real spark to the court when he coaches”.
