Squash is so fun and exciting to play that you can almost forget how good it is for your mind and body. It's a game that you may never perfect, but you can get close.
Our squash professionals will help you to refine your game in one-on-one sessions, and our tournaments and leagues will allow you to get on the courts as much as you like.

Our House Leagues offer a great opportunity for our Members to get onto the court and into a match every week, meeting other Members around the same skill level. Members are placed in a box with similarly skilled players and a match is arranged for you each Monday, based upon your and your opponent's availability.
Each year, we host a variety of tournaments and championships including: Calcuttas, Club Championships, the Canada Cup, and the Goodfellow Classic. These events will welcome Canada's best squash players to the Club, while others will feature Members and amateurs from around the city.

What do I wear? Are eye-guards necessary?
Non-marking court shoes (meaning the sole of the shoe is very soft, the softer the sole, the less marking they are) are mandatory. Eye guards are strongly recommended. As for attire, typical fitness clothing works well.
Do I need to book a court ahead of time or can I just drop in?
We offer online booking for our squash courts. If there is a specific time you would like to play, we recommend you book 4 to 7 days in advance. If you are more flexible, you would be able to drop in at off-peak times to play. The primetime courts are weekdays 7:30am, from 11:30am to 12:50pm, and from 5:00pm to 6:50pm.

Instruction from our squash pros has proven to be invaluable.
After having decided to return to playing competitive squash following a serious knee injury, I knew my routine had to change. Integrating personal training into my weekly squash regiment together with regular on-court instruction from our squash pros has proven to be invaluable. My current position at #1 on the Club squash challenge ladder is not an accident.
Our head squash professional, Josh McDonald, is passionate about the game. He can introduce you to the sport, help you to build and hone your skills, and take your game to the next level.
