Today's Hinckley Open Racketball Open Meal Deal!

Good luck to everyone taking part in today's Hinckley Racketball Open 2025. It's in full swing right now as it happens, and with a full day of competition ahead the players and audience are likely going to neeed sustenance to keep going into the evening.

With that in mind, our intrepid social team are on hand. Bacon butties are available to players and spectators until about 3.00pm or until they run out.

From 5.30pm or thereabouts, you will be able to take advantage of our "Plate and a Pint" special meal deal for £8.50. 

Come along and have a watch. In the A-grade we've got some big hitters of the big ball like Ali Mutch taking part, and coach James Bowden is no doubt looking to add some more silverware to his trophy cabinet.

Raffle Prizes Wanted! • Play The Pro at the 90th Anniversary Exhibition Night

Raffle Prizes
We are looking for donations of raffle prizes from our members. Can you offer an item of interest, a voucher for a business service, or a bottle of something special that we can encourage people to bid on. It doesn't need to be anything expensive. If you do, thank you, and please send your offer to socials@hinckleysquash.com.

We’re joined by 3x World Champion Nick Matthew (previously WR #1), PSA 2024 Hinckley Challenger runner-up Rhys Evans (highest WR #126), and local hotshot Alicia Mead (highest WR #44). Unfortunately Lucy Turmel has had to pull out due to a recent injury. Thankfully, our pro-whisperer Tim Solley is on the case and has arranged Grace Gear in her place. Grace is also a World Top 40 talent and has recently won a team gold medal at the same event in Poland that Jamsie just became Over 45s Champion at. We look forward to see her at the club!

We also need more people to put their hats into the ring to take on one or more of these four fine athletes that will be in attendance Maybe you could show them a thing or two, or just like to have a bit of fun and support the event a little more by spending a few extra quid and having a once in a lifetime experience. Get involved!

How To Play a Pro
Each of the four professional players will be available for just four 20-minute 'Play the Pro' slots, from approx 15:40. These are available on a silent auction basis so email your bid amount and choice of pro privately to comps@hinckleysquash.com and we'll be in touch with your time slot if you've been successful in the auction.

1st Team v 2nd Team Team Squash Match

Team Season 2025/26 Now Live!

Talk about starting the season with a bang!

In their opening fixture of the season and their first in Division 1, our team of talented juniors captained by Dan Brown is taking on our championship hopefuls captained by Ben Fenwick. 

This match has got to be worth a watch. Join us on Tuesday 16th September from 7.20pm.

We will publish the upcoming home fixtures ASAP as soon as all schedules are available to us.

Get involved in your club!

We want to remain a volunteer-run to keep your fees low. Can you dedicate an hour a week to help us?

Our club operates on a ‘Not For Profit’ basis, with most day-to-day running undertaken by volunteers and members of our committee. This support helps in keeping membership and court fees much lower than other squash clubs, with arguably superior facilities.

From time to time we will put the word out if we require the help in a particular department, but in general terms if you would like to get involved and offer a little of your free time to progress the club please send us a message here.
