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
If you've played Tennis, Badminton or other racket sports you'll likely feel comfortable swinging the racket and be playing competitive squash or racquetball in no time at all. If not, 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
If you're new to Bendigo Squash Club then you'll want to drop us a line to organise a hit, that way we can assess your ability and get you started on the appropriate competition night. You can do so via email, manager@bendigosquash.com or phone, 0435 654 953.
What gear do you need to start?
FREE - Racquets are available for hire
FREE - Squash shoes available for hire

We have a range of racquets, shoes, eye protection and other squash gear available for purchase at the club.
