SWISS SQUASH · 39 clubs · 1,955 active members · a Verein since 1973

The software for Swiss squash. And for 1 September.

Paak already handles your members, CHF dues (TWINT rolling out) and teams. For a club under SWISS SQUASH, the real constraint is not a spreadsheet — it is a date. On 1 September, an unpaid season licence removes the player from the national ranking.

  • The season driven to its deadline — memberships anchored to a season, automatic alerts 30 / 14 / 7 days before they end
  • Live match tracking — winner, nick, drop shot, boast, tin: squash vocabulary, not a generic spreadsheet
  • CHF + TWINT (rolling out), nLPD-compatible hosting — data in the EU, on Switzerland's adequacy list

Free up to 100 members. Swiss pilots open · CHF + TWINT rolling out.

The deadline that actually matters

On 1 September, an unpaid licence drops the player from the ranking.

«Ab dem 1. September erscheinen nur noch die Spieler:innen im Ranking, die ihre Lizenz 2025/2026 bezahlt haben.» — from 1 September, only the players who have paid their 2025/2026 licence still appear in the ranking. SWISS SQUASH — licence renewal, squash.ch

This is not one more formality. The Swiss Squash Ranking is the official national ranking list, decisive for every tournament and interclub seeding. A member who falls out on 1 September starts the next seeding further back — when the only failure was administrative.

Paak does not pay the licence: it is ordered and renewed on My-Squash, the federation's own platform, payable by credit card. Paak takes the half that belongs to the club — an up-to-date member list, a season that ends on a date you choose, alerts before it does, and dues payable online.

My-SquashWhere the licence is ordered and paid

What Paak does, precisely: memberships are anchored to a season; the club is alerted automatically 30, 14 and 7 days before a membership ends; unpaid dues trigger an email reminder into the member portal, where payment happens online (Paak One and above). What Paak does not do: no synchronisation with My-Squash. No public API was found on the SWISS SQUASH side — we will not claim a connector that does not exist.

SWISS SQUASH stays the reference — Paak lives alongside it.

Under its full name Schweizerischer SQUASH Verband (SWISS SQUASH) / Fédération Suisse de Squash / Federazione Svizzera di Squash, the federation is a Verein under ZGB Art. 60–79, in existence since 1973 and for unlimited duration. Its statutes (Art. 3) name it the competent Swiss federation in all matters relating to squash; it is affiliated to the World Squash Federation and the European Squash Federation, and is a Swiss Olympic member. Office in Langnau am Albis. Three regional associations sit between the clubs and the national body: Zürich Squash, Squash Romandie, Bern Squash. The official channel is squash.ch — and it stays that way.

SWISS SQUASH · federal channel

Stays your official reference

  • Season licence, ordered and renewed on My-Squash (my.squash.ch), payable by credit card
  • Swiss Squash Ranking — the official national ranking list, decisive for all tournament and interclub seedings
  • Interclub championship run by the federation (statutes Art. 2)
  • Licence fees are a statutory revenue line (Art. 41 EINNAHMEN, item c), alongside contributions from Swiss Olympic, BASPO and Sporthilfe
  • As a Swiss Olympic member the federation is subject to the Ethics Charter, the Ethics Statute and the Doping Statute (statutes Art. 5)
Paak · in addition

The club layer the federation does not cover

  • Dues and Mollie payments in CHF outside the licence (TWINT rolling out): memberships, camps, sponsors
  • Member portal with no account and no password — schedule, call-ups, “Pay everything” in one payment
  • Club accounting, volunteers, training and fixture scheduling
  • Live match tracking in squash vocabulary and an individual performance profile
  • Multi-section: a squash association and a squash centre both run on the same platform

No public API was found on the SWISS SQUASH side, and no connector is reserved in Paak. The bridge between the two worlds stays manual — export, then file import. We would rather say so than sell an integration that does not exist.

Age categories · Swiss squash

Two federal grids, published side by side.

Swiss squash does not publish a single grid. Two federation surfaces carry authority and their top bands differ: U19 on one, U20 on the other. Quietly merging them produces exactly the kind of mistake a club office pays for in rejected entries — so we show both.

Junior Swiss Championships JSM

The Junioren-Schweizermeisterschaften grid, as the federation publishes it.

U11 MixedU13U15U17U19

SQUASH !T series 8 tournaments / season

The federation's junior circuit, eight tournaments per season — with a different top band from the JSM.

U11 MixedU13U15U17U20
Masters — a “+” prefix, never “O”
M+45M+55W+55M+60M+65M+70

The Masters bands above are those confirmed by the 2026 Masters selection; others may exist. Swiss squash writes M+45, not “O45” — that notation belongs to another market and has no place on a Swiss entry form. National squads: Elite-Kader, Nachwuchs-Kader, Master-Kader.

Why this detail matters inside software: Paak is architected per sport, and age-category labels belong to a specific sport and a specific country. No grid is borrowed from another sport or copied from another market.
The match log

Live statistics, squash vocabulary.

During the match, one tap on the tracker adds each shot to the player's profile — from your phone, at the side of the court. Eight statistics built on squash vocabulary: four primary attacking shots, two neutral, two penalties. Best-of-5, rally-point scoring to 11, no substitutions: this is one against one.

StatisticImpactUse
Winner+2Clean winning shot, unreturnable
Nick (floor-wall join)+2The ball dies in the join between floor and side wall — squash's signature
Drop shot+1.5Soft shot close to the front wall, dead before the second bounce
Boast (side-wall winner)+1.5Winner played off the side wall — a geometric attack
Lob+0.5Defensive height recovery to neutralise an attack
Stroke (interference point)+1Point awarded on interference — a signal of good position on the T
Tin (bottom-strip error)−1.5Shot into the bottom strip of the front wall — rally lost automatically
Unforced error−1.5Out of court, second bounce, ball not retrieved

Why the nick deserves its own button

In a generic tool a nick is counted as an ordinary winner. But the nick — the ball that catches precisely the angle between floor and side wall and rolls out flat — is squash's signature. Its frequency in a player's profile says something precise: millimetre accuracy on attacking shots. That is exactly why Paak isolates it, and the nick share of winners is one of the profile's calculated metrics.

WSF Conduct sanction ladder

Regulation singles court 9.75 m × 6.40 m, with the doubles format also available for clubs that have the court for it. The player profile holds the preferred variant (Squash 11 or Squash 57), playing hand, racket weight and the fastest shot measured by radar — and calculates winners-versus-errors ratio, nick share, tin error rate and attacking shot share.

Jugend+Sport · the Swiss frame

Squash has been in Jugend+Sport since 1991.

Swiss squash is not a niche without an institutional frame: it is J+S-recognised, the federation holds its own subject-matter mandate, and the sport becomes Olympic in 2028.

J+S-recognised since 1991

Squash has been part of Jugend+Sport since 1991 — a stable federal frame for a club's junior section.

From 5 to 20 years old

All children and young people between 5 and 20 are welcome in J+S courses and camps. Paak tracks attendance, call-ups and parental consent across that range.

Subject-matter mandate at the federation

Statutes Art. 2 (ZWECK): SWISS SQUASH carries the Jugend+Sport subject-matter responsibility for squash and runs the interclub championship.

Olympic at Los Angeles 2028

Squash makes its Olympic debut at the Los Angeles 2028 Games, added to the programme by the 141st IOC Session (olympics.com). A recruitment cycle to prepare now.

Swiss squash, on top of everything Paak already does: member and dues management in CHF (Mollie, TWINT rolling out) · memberships anchored to a season, with alerts 30 / 14 / 7 days before they end · unpaid-dues reminders into the member portal · training and interclub scheduling · email call-ups with RSVP · club accounting and volunteers · nLPD-compatible hosting, with the EU on Switzerland's adequacy list.
Youth protection · Sonderprivatauszug

Sonderprivatauszug recommended — tracked for you.

Switzerland has no direct equivalent to the French law of 8 March 2024. But SWISS SQUASH is a Swiss Olympic member and, per its statutes (Art. 5), is therefore subject to the Ethics Charter, the Ethics Statute and the Doping Statute. Swiss Olympic recommends the Sonderprivatauszug — the special criminal-record extract — for anyone in regular contact with minors. In a J+S junior section covering 5 to 20 year-olds, that means the coach, the assistants and the volunteers at sessions.

  • Per-coach issue-date tracking — valid / expiring soon / expired
  • Alerts 30 / 14 / 7 days before renewal (every 5 years by default, configurable per club)
  • CSV export in one click — nLPD-compatible approach, data in the EU

Default cadence aligned with common Swiss sport-federation practice, adjustable club by club.

Frequently asked questions

What happens if a member does not pay their licence?

SWISS SQUASH states it plainly: from 1 September, only the players who have paid their season licence still appear in the ranking. And the Swiss Squash Ranking is the official national ranking list, decisive for every tournament and interclub seeding. So an administrative slip costs a ranking position. Paak does not pay the licence — it makes sure the club office does not walk into 1 September with open files.

Does Paak replace My-Squash?

No. The season licence is ordered and renewed on the federation's own platform, My-Squash (my.squash.ch), payable by credit card. That is the federal channel and it stays that way. No public API was found on the SWISS SQUASH side: Paak does not connect to it and does not claim to. Paak runs the club layer alongside.

Which age categories apply in Swiss squash?

Two federation surfaces publish genuinely different top bands, and they must not be quietly merged. The Junior Swiss Championships (JSM) run U11 Mixed · U13 · U15 · U17 · U19. The SQUASH !T series (8 tournaments per season) runs U11 Mixed · U13 · U15 · U17 · U20. Masters carry a “+” prefix: M+45, M+55, W+55, M+60, M+65, M+70.

Is squash recognised by Jugend+Sport?

Yes, since 1991. J+S courses and camps are open to all children and young people between 5 and 20 years old. The SWISS SQUASH statutes (Art. 2, ZWECK) also state that the federation carries the Jugend+Sport subject-matter responsibility for squash and runs the interclub championship.

Does Paak work for a commercial squash centre too?

Yes. The SWISS SQUASH statutes (Art. 8) admit not only squash clubs but also squash centres, regional associations, passive members, individual members and honorary members. The Swiss membership model is mixed — Paak runs an association and a centre operation on the same platform.
