Maryland’s newest and largest squash facility opened up in September of this year at Calvert School. 
The Luetkemeyer Athletic Center features a nearly 13,000-square foot turf field, an updated fitness center, and 10 brand new squash courts.
These courts, which include spectator viewing areas, will allow Calvert to move squash practice and competition on campus for the first time in the program’s history.
Patrick Bedore is the new Director of Squash at Calvert, which is now the biggest middle school squash facility in the United States. He will lead fifth grade intramurals, coach the middle school squash team that competes at the U.S Middle School Squash Championships, and provide programming for all ages and levels.
With 10 squash courts, Patrick plans to bring larger events to the Maryland area and grow the sport for all ages.
In addition to enhancing the squash program, the new athletic center will provide a valuable practice facility for more than two dozen other sports, including soccer, lacrosse, football, and field hockey, that will benefit from indoor facilities.
Thanks in part to the athletic center, Calvert will have greater opportunities to secure lasting community partnerships, expand after school club and camp offerings, and stand apart from other schools in the area.
