About Squash Education Alliance

Learn more about the Squash + Education Alliance (SEA), which sponsors urban squash programs like Seattle Urban Squash around the country.

The Squash + Education Alliance (SEA –https://squashandeducation.org/) was founded in 2005 (then called NUSEA) to help urban squash organizations around the country formally share knowledge and learn from one another on a national level. SEA oversees the creation, development and improvement of urban squash programs that help young people from underserved communities benefit from the life changing opportunities that urban squash can provide.

SEA has 23 member programs in cities across the country and world that enroll more than 2,000 students.  Located in Baltimore, Boston, the Bronx, Harlem, Newark, New Haven, Philadelphia, Detroit, Cleveland, Chicago, Minneapolis-St. Paul, Denver, San Diego, Santa Barbara, Oakland, Hartford, and Wilmington, these nonprofit organizations provide intensive after-school, weekend and summer programming that include academics, squash, mentoring, community service, college placement and more. Seattle Urban Squash is affiliated with SEA, but must grow further to enjoy the privileges of full membership.
