Canada's junior squash athletes have delivered a historic performance at the 2026 Pan American Junior Championships in San Salvador, El Salvador, capturing the most medals in Canadian history for this tournament.

From June 28 to July 4, Canada competed against nations from across the Americas and came away with seven medals: one gold, three silver, and three bronze. The result surpasses a 16-year-old record set by the 2010 team of Jennifer Pelletier, Alix Younger, Hollie Naughton, Joshua Sehkar, Tyler Olson, and Zachary Leman, who earned five medals (one gold, one silver, and three bronze), also in San Salvador.

The World Squash Junior Championships have not been held on Canadian soil since the early 1980s when Ottawa welcomed the inaugural Junior Women's Championship (1981), and Calgary hosted the Junior Men's Championships (1984).

More than forty years later, the tournament returns to Canada and Squash Canada is proud to announce the eight athletes who will wear the Maple Leaf beginning July 20th, when competition gets underway at White Oaks Resort and Spa and Ridley College.
