Squash stats to track
The four stats that actually matter for squash players are: ELO rating, win/loss record, matches played, and head-to-head against your most frequent opponents. Volley tracks all four automatically. Other stats (set differential, point differential, average match duration) are interesting but less actionable.
Why this matters for squash players
The reason this question matters so much is that Squash players tend to use stats as a way to track motivation. A clear number that goes up over weeks of practice is the closest thing recreational sport has to a leaderboard. Without it, improvement feels invisible.
How Volley tracks this automatically
In Volley, every match you score feeds into the relevant stat. Your dashboard shows rating, recent form, win/loss, and head-to-head against any opponent. Free, automatic, works for all 9 sports.
Tips for improving
Three things consistently move stats: more matches per week (sample size), playing stronger opponents (ELO leverage), and being honest about scoring (don't round up). All three are easier with an app than with a notebook.
