A LEGACY OF
GAME, MATCH, & SUPPORT
From its inception over three decades ago, the Banff SaSquash Tournament has been a testament to dedication, community spirit, and the sport of squash. This legacy began with local enthusiasts before transitioning leadership to Banff Rocky Mountain Resort.
In 2016, marking a new chapter in the tournament’s storied journey, the Bow Valley Squash Foundation (BVSF), in collaboration with the Best of Banff Group, introduced live and silent auctions during the esteemed Saturday evening banquet to support the BVSF’s Junior and Adult squash programs.
Today, while the event remains the pinnacle of provincial tournaments, it also symbolizes BVSF’s enduring commitment to community outreach. The Junior and Adult Outreach Squash Programs, currently benefiting regions such as Morley, Exshaw, Dead Mans Flats, Canmore, Lake Louise, Kananaskis, and Banff, stands as a testament to this commitment, with plans on the horizon to reach even more communities.
The legacy isn’t merely about the sport—it’s about support. The funds raised from the auctions directly aid in providing squash experiences for the youth, even allowing budding talents to participate in Junior tournaments in Calgary and other Cities in Alberta.

Beyond financial support, we’re in need of volunteers for tasks like tournament check-ins, assembling entry packages, tracking game scores, and assisting with referee shortages.
