Here we go with the 2023 club championships - it’s our Christmas gift to you! Always thinking of you, you see! Read on for details...

 

We’re going to ask you for your responses by 31st December, so we can launch the draws at the start of the New Year. No better start possible to 2023!

 

Yes we know there will be some other things occupying your time in the next 10 days, but you’ll have your moments when you’re fed up with eating, drinking and fraternising with the family. What better time to select which events you’re going to conquer in the club champs.

 

The events are:

  • Squash Open (men and women combined)
  • Squash Ladies Open
  • Squash Handicap
  • Squash Veterans (age 45 and over as at 1st Jan 2023)
  • Squash Vintage (age 55 and over)
  • Squash Junior Tournaments
  • Racketball Open (men and women)
  • Racketball Ladies Open
  • Racketball Vintage (age 55 and over)

In a change to the usual event calendar, Finals Day is likely to be on the Club’s open day in May. Usually the 2nd Sunday in the month. It’s always a busy day at the club, with the bar open and food served, and it will also be a great way to show the vibrancy of our squash and racketball community to prospective new members.

 

As last year, Junior tournaments and the Racketball Ladies Open will be run on Finals Day.

 

Action by Saturday 31st December
