There are four squash courts, situated next to the Common Room.

Recreational Squash
VIth Formers can choose Squash as their main sport for the term in either of the two winter terms; their sessions then take place on Tuesday and Thursday in normal sport time

In the Michaelmas Term, squash is included in the IVth Form Wednesday minority sports rotation.

Lower School pupils can opt for activity sessions – the Monday and Tuesday slots are open to all standards.

House Matches
Senior and junior House matches, organised on a round-robin basis, take place during the Michaelmas Term. Teams are five-a-side. The Boys' Senior competition is for UVth and VIth Form (teams must contain at least one UVth player). The Boys' Junior competition is for LVth and IVth Form (teams must contain at least two IVth Formers). The Girls' competition is open to all years.

Team Squash
We run the following teams:
Senior boys
U15 boys
U14 boys
Girls

Each of these teams has between three and five matches in the Michaelmas Term, and the same for the Lent Term. Matches generally take place on Tuesdays.
Team squad players are invited to attend a weekly coaching session (Monday) run by Neil Frankland, an experienced coach who has worked at the School for over ten years. He is a nationally ranked player, and competed for Scotland in the last Commonwealth Games.
