Free adult beginner coaching/ On line league expansion/ Club renos funding/ Superchamps dates

by admin in 2021, SPnews 0 comments tags: news
I've just heard that Squash Auckland have received confirmation that Auckland Unlimited will fund 6 hours of free adult group beginner (>20yo) coaching over 4 lessons in June. This is a great opportunity to attract new players to the sport but if you have not benefitted from a previous course, are relatively new to the club and E2 or below let me know and we'll try to squeeze you in. This opportunity will also be advertised on social media shortly both by ourselves and Squash Auckland. Likely to be weekend sessions.

Membership renewal/ Interclub update & winter enrolment/ holiday prog

by admin in 2021, SPnews 0 comments tags: news
Thanks for the correspondences this week and I'd just like to reinforce a few aspects for those contemplating membership renewal; • Our membership rates have not changed since 2015 with the exception of the $2/ month increase to monthly rates this year. • Our playing facilities have been hugely improved over this period and we are actively looking to improve the social spaces, just short of resource right now.

In accordance with sports directives we have from midnight last night reinstated access to casual players and unvaxxed members now that vaccine passes are no longer mandatory. You also no longer need QR scan but it is your prerogative whether to wear a mask. Please revert if you have any queries or concerns. Let's hope this lasts!

Club flooding/ Box leagues & Interclub update/ Gear available

by admin in 2021, SPnews 0 comments tags: news
We had a major series of leaks during the floods on Monday, initially during the morning thunderstorm and then during an evening downpour. Now that the crisis is over I'm tempted to post videos of the cascading water on FB but meantime there are a couple of photos of the flooding below. It transpires that the water intrusion was due to two of the three down pipes on the entranceway side being blocked which led to a massive leak into court 1 damaging 4 of the new LED lights. Council have been advised and will take action to both avoid a repeat incident and replace the damaged lights. Court 1 is playable but you might be best choosing other courts until the lights are replaced.
