Jill, the organizer, wanted to share some exciting updates with the sports community about the Pickering Squash Club. Based in Pickering, the club continues to be a fantastic spot for squash players of all skill levels. One of the highlights is the annual Lee Hanebury tournament, eagerly awaited by many. It's a weekend full of singles and doubles matches that balances both competitive spirit and social fun.
Participants should note that arriving early is crucial since start times are posted on the tournament’s Club Locker page. Draws can be checked online, and players have the chance to stay in the main draw or move to the consolation round depending on their performance. Keep an eye on Club Locker throughout the weekend as match times may shift.
Besides the tournament, the club has something for everyone throughout the year. There are regular events where members can relax and connect, such as the Saturday breakfasts and lunches. There's also a spirited Calcutta and Pub Night once the final matches wrap up. For those visiting on Sundays, plan for a bit of extra time to find parking since other events at the complex can make it busy.
As we kick off the new year, Jill is looking forward to welcoming everyone back post-holidays. Upcoming activities include the Monday Night Singles House League and the Doubles House League. These leagues are a great way to stay active, meet new friends, and enjoy the camaraderie of the sport.
Whether you're a long-time player or just picking up a racket, the Pickering Squash Club offers a friendly community for all squash lovers in the area. Happy playing!
