JUNIORS

Junior Programme runs alongside the Mini Squash and Performance awards of the England Squash. Our Junior courses start from the age of 5yrs with Mini Squash and progress up to U19 level.

We have a very active junior section with lots of juniors playing and learning the game of squash and with some now progressing into the Surrey Squads. We also have 2 teams in the Junior Surrey Cup Competitions.

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.
