Dear Members

Please read the latest information from England Squash below

Play suspended until 2 December

Sadly, all squash club/venues have been ordered to close from tomorrow, Thursday 5 November by the Government following Parliamentary approval of a four-week national lockdown. This means that all play is suspended until 2 December at the earliest.

We know this is hugely disappointing news but we must all pull together as a community and continue to follow the Government guidance to keep ourselves and each other safe.

Isolation motivation
We know that the next month will be challenging and we will all miss the opportunity to play and coach. Our Stay In, Work Out series provides squash-related activities and workouts to keep you energised during lockdown and help you come back to squash fit, strong, and raring to go. We've also rounded up the top five squash podcasts to listen to in lockdown plus provide printable trivia and challenges for younger players. View now.
