Social and competitive squash tournaments are run throughout the year, usually before the start of the league season and then again after the league has been completed. Doubles games have become very popular over the past few years and there are regular matches played each week.
The club boasts seven conventional plaster-walled courts with a viewing balcony plus an international standard all-glass match court, seating up to 200 spectators.
Our courts are complimented by the Spinners sports bar which has a viewing window adjacent to the glass court, a great place to watch a match over a drink and meal.
Introductory, Level 1 and Level 2 coaching can be arranged for members.
The Club is active in the Joburg League and Joburg Masters League. Joburg League is open to all players, male and female. The Masters League is open to players over the age of 35. All players are encouraged to become proficient in marking, refereeing. Marking and refereeing courses are run at the start of the season.
Other tournaments and national events that take place throughout the year can be found at Joburg Squash or from the yearly calendar at Squash South Africa. Joburg League and tournaments on the Squash SA calendar are accredited by Squash South Africa and, as such, all players are required to be registered via SportyHQ.
