squash

An indoor racquet sport -not to be confused with racquetball- that is best played during a long lunch or after work with fellow alumni from one's prep school and/or private college. Popular among WASPs, it offers an opportunity to get a vigorous workout without the monotony/drudgery of jogging or pursuing a less exclusive pastime. Often played during the winter months, it offers an excellent opportunity to "cross-train" for summer sports such as: tennis, yachting, crew, and badminton.

Harvard Student: "I can't believe that Trinity's squash team beat us again! None of their players are even from the United States..."
