First "Sports As a Way Of Life" Squash Course Completed

The first squash course for "Sports as a Way of Life" was completed on December 24, 2010.

At the beginning of fall semester, beginner squash courses were organized for newcomers to the game. All three courses were given by Dr. Hayri Özkan, squash instructor and director of Sports Center. "Among the participants most of them were female students," said Özkan. "They learned the basic skill and rules of the game. Now they are able to at least practice and play. They will try to take part in Squash Tournament in spring semester," repeated Özkan.

There will be more squash courses planned for students in the "Sports as a Way of Life" program. Instruction will begin in January 2011.
