“I had the distinct pleasure of meeting Richard and his wife, Pat, while I was a freshman walk-on squash player at Cornell University in 1995. When I played for Richard for 3 years at Cornell, I instantly noticed his endless knowledge of the game of squash as well as his ability to distill complex aspects of the game to simple, easily digestible lessons that could be utilized and mastered by both the youngest players on our team as well as the most advanced, experienced players on our team. Richard also had the ability to keep up (and oftentimes beat) college age players both on training runs and in matches. Aside from being an amazing coach and training partner, Richard also grew to be an incredible friend over the years, so much so that he and Pat honored my wife and our families by attending our wedding in 2006, over 10 years after Richard and I first met. I will always treasure Richard as a coach, mentor and friend.”

“Richard Millman is one of the leading squash professionals on the planet. He is a published author, “Raising Big Smiling Squash Kids,” and is a regular contributor to magazines like “Squash Magazine” where he writes intelligently about the sport of squash. His knowledge extends far beyond hitting the ball. He writes and coaches thoughtfully on tactics, training, nutrition, and diet. In 1995, Richard was the US National Team coach for the PanAm Games, the first time squash was included in the games. He later returned to serve as team manager. He led the Cornell University squash program for three years, where he started the women’s squash program. I am aware of at least four age group national titles that he has won in the United States. And I am sure he was won dozens of additional tournaments in the U.S. and in international competition. As an entrepreneur, Richard has been invited to build several squash and athletics programs. He is smart, hard working, and a respected voice in our industry.
