After playing squash for 16 years, I had reached a plateau in my ability so decided to book some coaching sessions with Ali. One of the best decisions Ive made in a good while!

I have been in the leagues for 4 years and found them highly competitive and played in an excellent spirit. There is a real incentive to improve your own game

Commonly Asked Questions

  • A pair of non-marking trainers (they’re usually marked as such on the soles!), some light sport wear (shorts and T-shirt), a water bottle and a racket. Don’t forget a towel and a change of clothes too. Hopefully you’ll need it!
  • It'll always happen during the middle of the best rally you've played in years! TWANG......... 

    ...and the ball limps it's way to the front wall for your opponent to smash low and into oblivion!!!

  • Early days, the racket won’t particularly influence your game. It’ll all be about coordination and building fitness. A good beginners racket starts from as little as £15 - £20 and you certainly shouldn’t need to spend a great deal more!
  • Squash courts are booked for 45 minute intervals. During this time you’d usually get a 5 game set played.
  • We run monthly 'box' leagues of five to six players in 18-20 leagues. Each player plays a 'best of five' against each other player in their respective league. Players with highest points tallies get promoted to higher leagues and lowest drop. The leagues are put up on the club notice board and on the leagues page at the start of each month. All you need to do is make contact with two of your opponents to arrange a date to play that month! The others will contact you...

    To join, just place your name in the entry section at the bottom of the leagues and the organiser will fit you in at your proposed/recommended league level. Easy.

  • Ah ha! Help is at hand. There's a container upstairs for the restringing service. Leave your racket in there with your name and number attached and it’ll be turned round usually within 2-3 days!
  • Play as often as you like/can! It is a high impact sport though, so you’ll need to take rest periods and certainly don’t want to overdo it to begin with. There are peak periods during the day when more people try to arrange games. Generally from 5.30pm to 8pm. If you’re happy to play later in the evening and perhaps stay on for a social drink afterwards, there are usually plenty of free courts.
  • Absolutely nothing! Unlike most other squash clubs, your membership is fully inclusive, so nothing more to pay for your court time!

    You are limited to one booking at peak times and there is a cancellation charge of £5.00 if you book and don’t attend or cancel but this is very easily avoided.

  • Yes, of course you can! We’re happy to invite you to give it a go! Do remember though that it takes time to build up fitness and ability so you’ve got to keep at it!
  • We're more than happy to look at further benefits should you be joining as a group. Fill in your contact details and any further information and we'll get in touch!
  • You can book courts late most evenings and play up to 10pm! 
  • Play squash!!
