In this ever-changing world I thought it would be best firstly to let you all know what restrictions are still in place for squash. I’m pleased to tell you that the only restrictions remaining are the amount of players allowed per court (6 for juniors and 4 for adults). Although there is not much in the way of restrictions, it will remain important to be covid safety aware and maintain good hand hygiene.
In addition to group sessions back up and running, both juniors and adults can book one to one coaching sessions. If you would like to book individual lessons, please contact me directly and I can arrange.
Timetable
Please find below details of all the squash coaching sessions we are putting on up till the October Half Term. This includes the weekly timetable of Junior and Adult group sessions. If you are not sure which session is best for you, please feel free to get in touch. Equally if you are interested in an individual squash or racketball lesson please get in touch.
This Half Term
Please see the below timetable for the next half term commencing Monday 12th September 2022.
Tots Squash Stars – we are trying to build a new group aimed at ages 5-10. This will start during the main junior Saturday session but will hopefully grow into a session in its own right. We need a minimum number for this session to go ahead so please get in contact if keen. To book this session please use the below link as you will get a bundle of kit including a racket, a ball, a shirt and a pair of goggles.
There have been issues with the website with booking and the first date is not today as it states but is in fact 17th Sept. As there have been issues with this please send me an email to confirm you have booked on to the course – many thanks.
Racketball and Women’s Squash – both sessions aimed at getting more people on court so, for a limited time, if you have a friend or know someone who you think might like to try out either session, they don’t need to be a club member.
Payment details
If you are a Berkhamsted School student attending a Berkhamsted School After School session, there is no charge as it’s a school led session.
There are six weeks in the next half term block up to October half term and the pay Up Front cost for junior players are £36 or for the Elites £60. Alternatively, I’m happy for those that want to, to ‘Pay As You Go’ and, in this case, I would ask that you let me know, sign-up basically, so I can confirm the viability of all respective sessions (I will be in touch if this is not the case). However, you may be aware that some junior sessions have proved to be very popular and, as we have limited numbers, please confirm your place as soon as possible.
(Note: an attendance register is maintained so Up Front payers can request a reduction for missed weeks on the next half term’s Up Front payment.)
