Looking for a fun, efficient and engaging way to exercise and socialize? Try squash!
Forbes magazine calls squash the healthiest sport in the world, and a massive recent health study in England found that racquet sports like tennis and squash were more predictive of long life than any other activity. We're working on spreading that message all across Edmonton!
A squash game typically takes about 45 minutes to play, gets your heart rate up high like a high-intensity interval training, and requires not only leg strength and endurance, but also a keen strategic mind. For many, it's the perfect combination of a hard workout in a short period of time and a great opportunity to socialize with others over lunch or after work.
Not only is it healthy, but it is also a lifetime sport with people playing competitively well into their 80s. One of our top players at the club is 70 years old! It's popular with school-aged children as well. In fact, the top 10-year old in the country plays at our club.
We are a not-for-profit organization and nothing would make us happier than to give the opportunity to try this great sport out for free to see if you catch the squash bug too.
The vibe is relaxed at the squash club and child-friendly. We have several drop-in times for players of all abilities, and singles and doubles leagues. There is also a small fitness room if you're just looking for a quick workout, and steam rooms in the change rooms to relax in afterwards. And after your done, we have a kitchen to grab some snacks or a drink to relax and hang out with your friends.
Although our official staffed hours are from 4PM-10PM weekdays and 10AM-6PM weekends, all of our active members have 365-day access from 5AM-midnight with a key fob.
