The Veterans Squash Rackets Club of Great Britain (GB Vets for short) established in 1963 aims to provide a variety of friendly squash fixtures, some involving short tours in the UK or abroad, to all players over 35 years of age and runs an age group defined annual Championship. Members receive notifications of the matches/tours and can express their wish to join that event by simple email response.

Players are encouraged to retain the ethos of fair, but competitive play and enjoy the friendly camaraderie and rivalry of a team atmosphere.

We are trialling using a tool called Sendpulse for contacting members with news and fixture alerts. This is the same product that is used by ESM for contacting players with newsletters and tournament information. An update for the new season was sent out last night, if you do not see it in your inbox please check the spam folder and mark the mail as "Not Spam" if it is there.

The GB Veterans Festival of Squash will be held at the RAC Woodcote Park on Sunday 16^th November, starting at 10:00am. Four teams take part - GB Vets, RAC, Escorts amd Army - in a series of singles and doubles matches (making use of the excellent full size doubles courts). Matches are handicapped to ensure they are competitive. There are snacks available during the day and a buffet tea with the presentations after the final match. RAC are the current holders of the trophy.
Please contact Ian Graham ([email protected] or 07881823175) if you would like to play.
