Squash 101 & Racketball.
Minutes
Squash 101 isn’t aimed at those who already play regular squash in a club or league structure, but at those who play less frequently and are looking for a different experience on court. Squash 101 is built on insight and designed to meet the expectations of a casual squash player by providing an alternative way to play that gets them on court more often.
This type of player typically:
•only has one or two people to play squash with. Squash 101 offers group activities on court enabling them to meet new squash buddies.
•prefers to focus on the fun, and social side of squash knowing that they get a good workout on court and are less interested in developing their squash skills. Squash 101 is delivered by a Squash 101 leader and sessions are designed in a way that offers time to socialise within the activity.
•prefers a less competitive environment and tends to be less motivated by competition, although some people may enjoy competitive banter amongst each other. Squash 101 isn’t competitive, and isn’t just about playing against each other and trying to win.
•prefers flexible opportunities to fit in around other things their lives. Squash 101 is an opportunity that should be available to members and non-members (different costs can be applied) and shouldn’t require any commitment to attend every session.
Racketball is slightly less intense than squash and is a little easier on the joints. Squash players tend to move to Racketball after sustaining injuries or their bodies are not quite up for the challenges of squash.
That said Racketball is an excellent game played with a slightly bigger and bouncier ball allowing you a little more time to get to the ball and enables longer rallies.
