About
Hello Squashies,
This tournament on SportyHQ now refers to both the June edition and the March edition of the Hiscoes Beginner to 700 Squash Tournament.
Here's what I wrote back in March...
Welcome to the Sydney Beginner Squash Circuit, designed for adults who are brand new to squash!
Last year we hosted four tournaments at three clubs; Bondi, Hiscoes & Willoughby (twice).
This year, we're back at Hiscoes for the first event of the season!
Lower divisions will be using modified rules and bouncier squash balls to encourage longer rallies.
Higher divisions will be using standard scoring, but I'd still recommend the single yellow dot ball.
The upper limit for players on this circuit is a SportyHQ rating of 700.
If you're rated above 700 and want to be involved, please get in touch! We will need scorers, time keepers and the more people we have encouraging our new players, the better.
All players must be over 18.
All matches are timed. 2 minutes warm up, 8 minute match. Each player is guaranteed 4 matches. But we'll try and get you 5!
The playing component of the tournament should last for about two hours for each division.
Rough schedule
12:00 noon: Division 3 & 4 starts
1:40 PM: Division 3 & 4 - Medal matches
2:00 PM: Division 2 starts
2:10 PM: Division 3 & 4 - Presentations
2:30 PM: Division 1 starts
4:30 PM: Division 1 & 2 - Medal matches
5:00 PM: Division 1 & 2 - Presentations
There are showers at the club and then we usually head out to a nearby bar for some food and drinks afterwards.
Any other questions, feel free to get in touch. Hope you enjoy being part of the day!
Entries are capped at 44 players, including 8 spaces reserved for absolute beginners.
When entries reach capacity, we will start a waiting list. Please email Leigh at to be added to the waiting list
NB: Entries are now full for divisions 1, 2 & 3!
