Gossip/News

Thomas Heneghan had a novel birthday party this year in the form of a mini squash tournament.  The two teams (the Donkeys and the Goonies) had a close and hard-fought match and it ended with a narrow (12-10) victory to the Donkeys.


Evesham didn't do very well this year in the county leagues.  What with the departure of a couple of players, the poor condition of the court floors, the lack of access to the gallery, and the poor changing room conditions, we had difficulty in fielding teams.  It should be a different story this year!

We have had a few of our members play for the county:

- Brett Green
- Matthew Powell
- Charlotte Campbell
- Lauren Campbell
- Clare Heneghan

Court Maintenance

Thanks to Steve P, Paul H, Bob S and others for repairing holes, sanding floors, clearing galleries etc.

Paul H and Steve P are going to give a light sand to the floors when all the other building work is complete - hopefully this will restore the grip.

Court heaters are on the way, and should be installed before the end of the month - just in time for the cold spell.

Outstanding:
- Court cleaning
- Finishing the gallery floor
- New ceilings
- New light tubes

Racket Restringing

I (Paul Heneghan) offer a squash racket stringing service.

Stringing prices range from £9.00 for cheap synthetic gut to £18.00 for Tecnifibre.  Other strings available to order.  Grommet strips usually cost £5.00 and need to be replaced every couple of restrings or so.

A 24-hour turnaround is often possible for urgent cases.

See the stringing page for more details, including prices.

Steve Porter also offers a stringing service through the club shop.

Squash Leagues

These have died AGAIN!  Maybe we can get them up and running in the winter?  Enquiries to Pete Bolshaw.
