School Start Squash – SETTING UP THE NET

  • Follow the pictures to set up the net.
  • Lay the equipment out on the floor: You will need the net, poles and elastic ties.  
  • Connect the poles to make a standing structure without the top pole attached.
  • Slip the net over the stand. Connect the top pole and insert it into the top of the net.
  • Connect the top corners of the poles so the structure is complete and pull the net down, so it is straight.
  • The net must be tightened so that the ball bounces off it correctly. Use the elastic black ties provided to secure the net to the stand at the bottom, pulling it tight.
  • Elastic ties can also be put on the net’s sides to increase tension.
