🌍🏆 From England call-up to the World Stage! 🇬🇧
A few weeks ago, we celebrated the fantastic news that Eve Parkins had been selected to represent England at the 2026 World Squash Junior Championships in Niagara-on-the-Lake, Canada. Now she’s home with an unforgettable experience and an achievement to be incredibly proud of.
Called up at the last minute, Eve embraced the opportunity to compete against the world’s best under-19 players. While nerves got the better of her in her opening individual match, she showed remarkable resilience, bouncing back to win her remaining three individual matches – a true reflection of her determination and character. 💪
Eve also played her part in the England girls’ team alongside Emily Coulcher-Porter, Reka Kemecsei and Harriet Broadbridge. The team secured impressive victories over Macau, China, Japan, and Canada, before finishing 6th in the world – an outstanding achievement against the very best junior squash nations.
To represent your country at a World Championships is something many athletes only dream of. Eve’s journey is a testament to years of dedication, hard work and perseverance, and we’re incredibly proud to have watched her achieve this milestone.
👏 Congratulations, Eve, on an amazing tournament. We can’t wait to see what comes next!
