World Squash Day to be celebrated at Midhurst

Hundreds of squash venues across England are opening their doors and showcasing this great sport to their communities. This is your chance to step on court and try your hand at squash and discover its amazing benefits such as fitness and friendships.

The squash programme is packed with opportunities ranging from junior coaching, through to racquetball and coaching for regular players. All courts and coaching are free.

“Midhurst SC have two men’s teams in the Sussex League and are keen to develop further, with juniors, new and returning players,” said Neil Procter of the squash club.

“One of our key goals going forward,is to work together to increase the number of women playing. This event will have some specific times called

‘Squash Girls Can’, where hopefully we can develop an enthusiastic core of ladies – perhaps we will soon have two ladies’ teams in the Sussex League.”
