Squash for all levels - What's yours?

I've been a member of the club before

So much has changed around the Club in recent times and you'll love seeing all the new and old players having a ball. Why not pop back in for a hit over the Spring and see for yourself.

I've never played Squash or Racquetball

No experience is necessary. If you've played Tennis, Badminton or other racquet sports, you'll likely feel comfortable swinging the racquet and be enjoying a match of squash or racquetball in no time at all. If you’ve never swung a racquet before, don’t worry we have plenty of experienced players on hand to help show you the swings and get you court ready.

I've played before but it's been a while
