Spring 2012

So much squash to play and watch right now that I barely know where to start. If you’re in the NYC area, check out the NYSquash site for their list of upcoming tournaments and events. And check out USSquash for tournaments in the rest of the U.S. There are also pro tourneys coming up. More info at PST, PSA, WISPA, ISDA, and WSDA. Now you know your squash alphabet….

Winter 2012

It’s that time of year again — time to sign up for the Grand Open! Play in one of the most popular and fun tournaments of the year and get to watch the Tournament of Champions in Grand Central. Sign up here soon – draws definitely fill up fast.

Autumn 2011

If you’re a female squash player in NYC and want to play more, please check out these upcoming events and info!
NYSquash Women’s Squash Night (Wednesday, September 21st)
Howe Cup 2011  (practices begin this Thursday, September 15th)
NYSquash Leagues (if you want to play on a team or captain a team)

April & May

There are so many tournaments in NYC going on these months, I can’t keep up with them, so go here, to find what fits your schedule. I’ll shout out the Big Apple Open @ Eastern Athletic Club  (4/29-5/1) because it’s in my borough (tho’ only one stop from Wall St.) and a very friendly club. But if you only have time/$ for one more this season, consider the Hyder Trophy in May; it’s perfect for playing, watching, and you won’t need your coat (hopefully) in between matches.

March

The New York Sports Club-86th St is hosting a US Squash sanctioned skill level event from March 11-13. The information as well as a signup option can be found at http://www.msra.net/events/uptown2011.asp. Sign up by March 7th!

January

Lots of great squash events coming up this month. You may not be able to do/see everything but if you can only pick one, I’d highly recommend the Grand Open Jan 21-23, and the entry fee also lets you see the pros in action in the Tournament of Champions at Grand Central. Priceless! Sign up by Wednesday 1/5/10 for the discounted entry fee. After that, it’s a few bucks more. But don’t dawdle, draws fill FAST.

Also, if you’re at all curious about doubles squash, check out the pro exhibition match at CityView on Tuesday, January 11th @ 7 p.m. And if it inspires you, sign up to play in the MSRA doubles league, starting in mid January.
