"My goal has always been to give back whatever was given to me. This is my biggest motivation and drive to bring forward all the experience I gained through my squash career and inspire the young ones to dream big just like I did."
Nicol David, Eight-Time Squash World Champaion and Squash Legend Tweet
We are proud to announce that Nicol David Organisation (NDO) has officially partnered with us as a programme we support.
The non-profit was launched in 2022 in Bukit Jalil, Kuala Lumpur, by Malaysia’s former World No.1, eight-time World Champion, legend Nicol David, and Colombian former World No.81 Mariana De Reyes.
With her strong desire to build on this legacy and give back to the community, Nicol decided to create the Little legends program.
This initiative aims to engage the children involved with squash, developing their life skills, provide them opportunities to learn English as well as enable good nutrition.
Under the ‘Little Legends’ initiative, a subsidized after-school programme, children aged 8 from low and middle income families will take part in a five-year programme comprising of twice-weekly squash training and English tutoring.
As seen in the video above, they also give the children they work with the opportunity to see professional squash, mainly at the Malaysian Open, which inspires and engages them with the sport.
We look forward to working more closely with NDO and to supporting them in the amazing work that they do.
