Wednesday Sessions
- The club has a block booking for all 3 courts at the Gryphon Centre on Wednesday's from 5:15pm until 6:45pm.
- New members and visitors are most welcome. Please email the secretary (Andy Turner) before you come down for the first time or invite a visitor along.
- The idea of Wednesday evening sessions is to play, practise, exercise, meet other players, socialise and be friendly.
- The general format we use is American scoring first to 15 then swap.
- If more than 6 players are wanting to play, we usually use one or two courts to keep warm and use at least one court for shorter games up to 11 points...
- We rely on self organisation at the session for this.

Leagues, ladders and other competitions
- The Leeds University Open Squash League. This is open to all staff, students and visitors and used to be called the Intramural League. It runs a roughly monthly cycle of leagues during term time. The following is a link tto the email list for these leagues:
- In the Summer 2018 a ladder is running instead of the leagues. The ladder may carry on indefinitely provided there is still interest and a way to keep it going...
Administration
- If members want to organise competitions, teams, coaching, or visits to other facilities to play or spectate then please self organise.

There have been general meetings in the past and there is an archive of notes from these. The last meeting was in September 2012.
