weekevie04 Posted July 4, 2015 Share Posted July 4, 2015 Anyone play or follow/watch this sport? I started in 2011, stopped through working odd shifts a year or so back, but meeting a friend to begin hopefully playing again regularly. I joined a league a few years back and remember seeing a 20 stone guy who was about 55 and thought I could win this, how wrong was I - he stood in the middle of the court spraying it around and knew tons of different types of shots. As for watching, the rallies are long. I didn't even know they had doubles, but I caught some of that at the Commonwealth games - the matches would take an age - 4-5 min rallies to be ended by a let. If you've ever been curious about this. Give it a go and if you play someone at a similar level it can be really competitive, and a great work out - like a one hour HIIT/Fartlek session if you're up against a good player. Rambling now, but interesting to see if there are any other squash fans on the Tamb. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

vanderark14 Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 I played in the Grampian league two years ago but stopped playing whilst training for the London marathon. I going for a hit on Thursday and hope to get back into it competitively this winter. It's a great work out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Angus_Young Posted July 5, 2015 Share Posted July 5, 2015 Used to play a bit with my mate. Was pretty shire at first but we got into the swing of it and as we are as pish as each other it was a cracking work out Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

deecie Posted July 8, 2015 Share Posted July 8, 2015 Squash is a near-impossible sport. I'd like to see it banned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
