Headspace Charity Squash Extravaganza An Overwhelming Success

1/4/2018

0 Comments

 
The Headspace Charity Squash Extravaganza raised more than $22,000 that attracted four of the world top 20 and six 2018 Commonwealth Games representatives to the Elanora Squash Centre on the Northern Beaches of Sydney on Saturday, the 24th of March, 2018.

The event was very generously sponsored by East Coast Squash Academy, Jack Goodman, David Fleming and Trevor Butt, three local Sydney squash players, who were able to have a hit with their favourite professional in attendance. This event takes Jake Cohen, the event's organiser, total amount raised for mental health charities to over $48,000.

The Extravaganza saw Paul Coll, Joelle King, Donna Urquhart, Cameron Pilley, Zac Alexander, Aaron Frankcomb and Rex Hedrick participate in front of more than 70 people at the Elanora Squash Centre.

"I loved watching the top quality squash on offer. I really enjoyed the event and the evening’s festivities,” declared Helen Zaman. “Event organiser Jake Cohen did a marvellous job of arranging the event. Being able to raise such a large amount for headspace is sensational."
Headspace is the National Youth Mental Health Foundation providing early intervention mental health services to 12-25 year olds, along with assistance to promote young peoples’ wellbeing. This covers four core areas: mental and physical health, work and study support as well as alcohol substance abuse rehabilitation services. To contact headspace, please email info@headspace.org.au for any information or further details.

Did you know?

One in four young people have experienced a mental health issue in the past 12 months – a higher percentage than any other age group.
Alarmingly, suicide is the leading cause of death for young people, accounting for one third of all deaths in this age category.

Research shows that 75 per cent of mental health issues emerge before the age of 25. By treating these issues early, it has been shown that providing a holistic model of support, the risk of them developing into more serious problems is greatly decreased.

Headspace is proud to have provided over 1.5 million services through its centres, online and phone support helping more than a quarter million young people.

Headspace has been overwhelmingly effective, with 60 per cent of its clients showing significant improvement. The other 40 per cent are still on their journeys and are continuing to receive services, which we hope will prove equally beneficial for a long life of peace, serenity and joy.
Events like this combine social interaction with physical exertion and in the case of the professional players, the physical prowess and mental tenacity that we can all aspire to acquire.
​
"I'd like to thank all those involved in the event, especially the East Coast Squash Academy’s Dr Marc Dussault and founder Aaron Frankcomb for MC’ing the squash matches and donating their speaker and appearances fees respectively. Also, I want to mention that an event of this size could not have been successful without Tim Wyres and Katherine Moore’s amazing support and allow us to host the event at the Elanora Squash Centre, one of Sydney’s premier sport venues.” Jake Cohen said.
