We are very sorry to advise you all that Guy Rutter passed away peacefully on Sunday afternoon (05.07.26) surrounded by his family. After his initial diagnosis Guy fought on for 3 and a half years.
Many of us will remember Guy for the great man he was. A brilliant leader and our original Club Captain serving on the committee for many years and being ever present around the club. His endless energy, tireless organisation, positivity, and inclusivity saw the club thrive during his time.
We will share funeral details when they are known, and I am sure that you will all join us as a club in sending all of Guy's friends and family our deepest condolences and best wishes at this difficult time.
As a way of a permanent book of remembrance, if anyone would like to add a few words about Guy we will add then to this post, please email to martinlee247@gmail.com and they will be added here.
Virtual Book of remembrance.
Martin Lee - Guy was a very special friend and I'm struggling to find a way through the loss of this great man, I just cant imagine how his family are coping. That said he was a top bloke and fondly remembered, a wicked sense of humour, with so many tales of his life I heard. RIP buddy.

James Charlton - Guy was the reason I joined the squash club. A practical man, he was doing some work for a neighbour when we got chatting and he insisted that I come and have a knock with him.

Richard Ewels - Guy was inspirational, on and off the court. A good friend, always willing to help others and to make everyone feel welcome. He led by example, was selfless and positive in attitude. His memory will live on.
