The Club, which has just recently
changed its name from Esporta Croydon to the Surrey Health
and Racquets Club, was opened in 1985 and in 1990 4 glass back
squash courts were added to the facilities.

COMPETITIONS
Surrey Cup Teams
have been very successful with our 1st team in Division 1 and
winning the 2004/2005 season and have attracted the top players to
play for us like Pete Nicol, Adrian Grant, Del Harris, Steve Meads.
We have 3 other surrey cup men's teams distributed between divisions
3 – 7.
The coming 2005/2006 season we are entering a team into the PSL
League (Premier Squash League). This will be our first time in
the new National League and we feel this is the next progression for
us as a Club. We are putting together a good team and hope to really
compete in the Competition.
