Build a Squash Routine in 60 Seconds

07-25 22:07 SquashRT

Practising alone, it's easy to just repeat one drill and call it a day. But real improvement comes from stringing drills together into a flow — warm up with some deep length, open up the court with crosses, finish with a drop. Planning that flow ahead of time is what a routine is for.

The catch is that "building a routine" sounds like work. But on SquashRT you don't have to build a drill from scratch — you can grab one someone's already shared and just add it. Honestly, 60 seconds is enough.

1. Browse the public drills

Start with the public drills list. You'll see drills shared by coaches and players — each one shows whether it's a Feed or Rally drill and how many shots it has, at a glance. You can preview any of them in Court View (3D) or Tactics Board (top-down) to see exactly what it is.

2. Add a drill to a routine

Pick a drill you want to work on and hit "Add to routine". (You'll need to be signed in for this.) A window pops up — if you don't have a routine yet, tap "+ Add Routine" and just give it a name, like "Warm-up flow" or "Back-corner focus." That's your first drill added.

3. Add a few more

Add two or three more the same way. Lighter drills to warm up, tougher ones toward the end — thinking warm-up → length → finish keeps the flow natural. Don't overthink the picks; you can reorder them anytime.

4. Order them and play

Over in your routines, arrange the drills in the order you want and hit play. When one drill finishes, a "Play Next Drill" button takes you straight into the next, so the whole routine runs as one flow.

Get the rhythm before you hit the court

A routine like this is perfect for off-court mental rehearsal before you play for real. Once you've got the angles in your eye and the T-recovery rhythm in your hands, your body moves first when you step on court. And if building feels like a hassle, just grab public drills as-is — you never start from an empty court.
