Squash Leagues

Organised by Mark Davies.

If you want to join the squash leagues, write your name and phone number on the list above the court booking sheets on the squash noticeboard.  Indicate what division you would like to be in (if you are not sure then ask advice from other players, challenge someone from the leagues to a friendly match to gauge your standard, or just have a guess).  Don’t worry if you don’t think you are not good enough to play, the more the merrier and there’s only one way to improve your game - play lots of people!

You will then be put in a division with 4 or 5 other players (called a “box league”).  Everyone in the division should contact the other players in their division to arrange a game.  You have got one month to play all your games and you score points depending on the result of the match.

All the points gained in the division are totalled up at the end of the month and players are promoted or demoted accordingly.  You must play at least one match per month to stay in the leagues or you get dropped out and have to reapply, effectively missing a month of league squash. 

See the noticeboard for more information about the league and contact details for Mark and the Squash Committee.

Squash Ladders

Organised by Mark Davies (adult ladder - he's a busy man!) and John Darcy (junior ladder).

Another way to meet new squash players is to join one of our squash ladders.  Get yourself a card from the bar (the cards are free) and write your name and phone number on it.  The junior cards are blue and adult cards are white.  Put your card in the plastic “ladder” located on the wall to the right of all the squash noticeboards in the corridor on your way to the squash courts. 

You have to add your card to the bottom of the ladder, that’s the way it works!  You can then challenge someone up to three places above you for a game.  There is no time limit on the ladder, unlike the leagues.

See the ladders section of the noticeboard for more information.
