The information below shows for each State (or county or city if appropriate) which phase of opening they are currently in and US Squash's interpretation of how it correlates to the US Squash STAGES recommendations on return to play. ( www.ussquash.com/covid/#restart )
Where a State may allow a full return to play, US Squash recommends clubs start cautiously with Stage 1 and gradually and safely increase the trusted groups until full club play is achieved. This is indicated by Stages 1,2,3,4.

Note that while some states or authorities may allow squash to open, some facilities may choose to remain closed. This is particularly true where a facility includes many business sectors such as gyms and indoor dining, both of which have their specific guidelines and timelines which may differ from indoor sports. In all cases, facilities are encouraged to check with their local authorities on their return to play.		USQ Stage
