‘In the nick’ of time

Latest news, events, and updates from Hinckley Squash & Racketball Club

A busy week ahead of us...

I wanted to take a minute to remind you all of the upcoming week's events:

Work Party tomorrow, Saturday 17th May (details below)
Dinosaurs League Finals, Tuesday 20th May from 7.00pm. Who will be crowned the winning team? Who will shout out at the most inopportune time when someone is about to play a delightful volley-nick winning shot? Who will eat the most pizza at the bar? Come along and find out.
Smyths Toys Hinckley Challenger PSA Tournament, Wednesday 21st - Sunday 25th May. Matches start at 1.30pm on Wednesday, but you simply have to be there at 5.30pm to support our local wild-cards in action, and enjoy a pint and a pie for £7.50 (details below).
The Club Comps 2025 will be put up on the noticeboard and announced to players via the WhatsApp group chat (details below).

Work Party Helpers Wanted!

Saturday - 10.00am to 12.00pm

We need to get the club looking its best for the PSA Challenger Tournament, and need your help to do so!

We welcome any members who can spare a few hours of their Saturday monring to get involved in a few minor jobs to ensure the club is looking as good as it can for the tournament – volunteers will be rewarded with a bacon butty, a hot drink, and a glowing sense of achievement you can only get from volunteering.

For any queries, sent a message to John Lambert at manager@hinckleysquash.com

Club Comps Commence!

The Club Competition draws are currently being tabulated by our super computer (Tim Parratt) and will be added to the noticeboard at some stage over the weekend. Competitiors will be notified by email if we have yours on file, and the WhatsApp "Buddies" chat group will also be updated.

The initial rounds of the junior tournament will be managed by James Bowden as part of the Thursday and Saturday junior coaching sessions.

Get those games booked in sharpish as deadlines will be strictly enforced. Good luck everybody!

For queries, email Tim at comps@hinckleysquash.com

PSA Tournament Next Week!

We’ve listened to your feedback from last year and are pleased to announce that each evening there will be a “Plate and a Pint” offer on at the bar where you can get a scrummy plate (might be a bowl) of food (vegetarian option will be available) and a drink of your choice for just £7.50.

FACILITY RESTRICTIONS

As with last year, to facilitate a Challenger Tour event we need to place some minor restrictions on the facilities. We have tried to keep these to a minimum and thank you for your understanding.

Court 1 will be unavailable on the 21st and 22nd May as it is needed for Round 1 and Round 2 matches.
Court 4 will be unavailable throughout the tournament (21st to 25th May).
The Snooker Table will also be unavailable throughout the tournament (21st to 25th May). Not only do we use this area as our control centre for the event but the balcony behind Court 4 is a very popular viewing area.

FREE CLUB NIGHT 23rd MAY

As a show of thanks regarding the restrictions we would like to offer Club Night on Friday 23rd May (on courts 2 and 3) to members free of charge so you can take inspiration from the action, put it into practice then enjoy the “Plate and a Pint” offer whilst watching the remainder of the matches!

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.
