Annual playing subscriptions are due on 1st April. The cut-off date for subscriptions is 31st May. After that date non-payers will have access to the booking system inactivated until such time as their subscription is paid.
Members may book a court up to 7 days in advance
When booking 7 days in advance, the courts may only be booked from 7am.
Members are encouraged to show the opponent's name on the booking sheet.
The court booking fee is 50p per court at all times.
Each member has an account within this booking system.
A member’s account must be in credit in order to book a court.
To credit their accounts, members can purchase £5 top-up vouchers from the bar, and apply the top-up to their accounts by logging-in to this website or by using the on-site touch screen at the club
A member is allowed to play on a court if it has not been booked, but must observe the advice on playing “on spec”

Players are allowed to play on a court without a booking stamp if the court has not been pre-booked. This, however, is on the strict understanding that court times as shown on the court booking screen cannot be changed. i.e. If a player books the following court after an “on spec” match has commenced” he / she is entitled to access to the court at the set time.
On spec players are advised to avoid confrontation by booking the following court to prevent this situation arising.

When playing a guest (non-member), members must (i) select "*** GUEST ***" as the opponent and (ii) must pay a £3 guest fee at the bar (before or after playing).

The Squash Club management committee are entitled to block book courts for team matches, team training sessions and competitions without prior notice.
The committee reserve the right to review and amend the court booking rules as necessary.
