We encourage members to mingle and arrange matches against different opponents in order to create a healthy social culture.
League
Club championships are normally played in November, which will determine a ladder in order to pick league teams. We call upon all regular league players to commit to their teams for home and away games.
Juniors/Development
We take the development of young squash players very seriously and invest in our juniors’ future. Our resident coach Jonathan Just from Just Squash works very hard to keep a high standard and encourage kids from all ages to fall in love with the game of squash. As a result we have a very strong group of players representing Boland and doing very well on national level. With your support we can go to even greater heights. The club’s future is looking very bright!
Advertising and Sponsorship
We give opportunity to local businesses by securing exclusive advertising space giving them maximum exposure to regular playing members and guests visiting the club. We also have options to sponsor tournaments, contribute to junior development, and donate to any worthy cause promoting the wellbeing of the club. Various packages are available so get in contact with our committee if you want to make use of this opportunity.
