Hi & Kia Ora!

.  

My name is Joelle King.  I’m from New Zealand and I am a professional squash player.  I recently became the number 10 ranked player in the world and it feels amazing! 

I grew up surrounded by a large extended family including 2 older brothers who always made sure I had a good grasp (sometimes literally!) of sibling rivalry.  From card games to backyard sport – everything was a competition to be the best!

Nothing has changed, well besides that I can now annihilate my bros on the squash court.  My competitive instincts and determination to be the world’s best squash player remains. 

Since 2010 I have been the New Zealand women's champion and a definite highlight was winning two medals (gold and silver) at the Commonwealth Games in Delhi, India.  My short term goals are to continue to move up the international Wispa rankings and secure that number one spot!

Enjoy my website and please leave me a message, I am also on facebook and love hearing from everyone!
