THE 2024 Summer Squashathon at Four Walls Squash and Social Club kicked off on June 10 with an enthusiastic start, welcoming a dozen new squash players eager to try out the indoor racquet sport.

Over 60 people have already signed up for the week of free squash classes offered by Four Walls to the general public (ages 18 and over). 

It’s designed to introduce new players to the growing sport, which provides a fun, indoor option for working out during the summer heat. There are still spots available for those interested in joining. 

Registration is available on the Four Walls website for the remaining sessions, which run until Saturday, June 15. 

Evening classes run until Friday from 5:30pm to 8:30pm, with morning sessions on Saturday from 9am to 12 noon.

“We’re very happy about the registration so far and the fantastic kick-off. One of the participants already sign-up for ongoing coaching and membership,” said Noelle Nicolls, managing director of Four Walls. 

“We’ve had participants looking to escape the summer heat with an indoor activity and many simply curious about the sport. One of the participants learned the game as a child but hadn’t touched the court in 20 years,” said Nicolls.

Squash is an excellent way to burn calories, improve cardiovascular health, and enhance agility and coordination. The sport is suitable for people of all ages and body types, requiring no prior experience or special equipment. 

Four Walls provides racquets, balls, and optional safety goggles for all participants in the Squashathon.

To make the experience even more rewarding, participants in the Squashathon can enjoy a special offer of 50% off Four Walls Squash memberships for two consecutive months. 

This membership includes two months of complimentary coaching, waivers on court fees, access to the club’s facilities, locker room access, guest passes, and more.

“We want to encourage more people to sign up and take advantage of this unique opportunity. Squash is a great way to stay active, meet new people, and enjoy a sport that offers a full-body workout. At Four Walls, we’re committed to making squash accessible and enjoyable for everyone,” said Nicolls.

Squash newcomers are invited to join the remaining sessions of the Summer Squashathon.
