Squash / Racketball Club nights
The club nights continue to be well supported for anyone wanting a social game - open to players of all standards with Squash on Mondays from 7.20pm and Racketball on Thursdays from 6.50pm - an ideal opportunity for new members to join in or beginners to play against more experienced players. Please note that when the squash 1st team is playing a home game, the outside courts will only be available for RB club night from 6.50pm to 7.30pm - the glass back court will however be available from 7.20pm as usual. The forthcoming evenings affected will be 14/11, 21/11 and 28/11.

Saturday morning squash training
Dave Croft and his helpers will be continuing with Saturday morning training sessions from 9.30am - 11.30 am and people are welcome to drop in through the morning but preferably to start before 10am. Priority is given to juniors, but anybody is welcome. The sessions are a mixture of routines, fitness and condition games.
