We are excited to announce another year of Youth Programs at Portland Community Squash! This year will look a little different so please review the follow information about our upcoming year of programming.
What is West Crew?
This year, we are dividing our programs by crew. This will insure we provide a high level of direct support to families and mentorship to students. It also allows to provide staff resources directly to school communities in the hopes that we can enroll a larger amount of students evenly across the city.
The West Crew currently consists of Rowe Elementary, Longfellow Elementary, Lincoln Middle School and Deering High School.
If your students does not go to one of these schools, please feel free to sign up or contact Marilu (Marilu@pcsquash.com) who will help you navigate the sign up process!

Membership Requirement + Program Cost:
This year we will require all students enrolled in our after school programs to be members at Portland Community Squash. If you’re new to PCS and unsure if it’s the right fit, our team is happy to discuss a 3-month trial membership to help you get started. Membership is extremely flexible and financial aid is readily available to families. Please do not let this membership requirement hinder you from signing up your student- send any questions you have to Marilu and she will be sure to help you make this decision!
