Squash

Newlands Lawn Tennis Club has five squash courts, four of which are in our recently developed squash centre. These four courts are glass backed and have ample viewing areas suitable for hosting major squash events. We have one of the largest and most vibrant squash communities in the city and all levels of players are gladly welcomed.

We enter seven men’s teams and two ladies’ teams in the West of Scotland Leagues.

Squash Mini Leagues

There are 16 squash mini-leagues at Newlands and are suitable for all levels of players. The leagues change every month due to promotion and relegation.

Squash Coaching

Squash coaching is available from club coach Peter O’Hara senior. Peter has been coaching squash for over 20 years, and has coached several top players, including his son Peter junior, who has had international success. Peter won the prestigious ‘Coach of the Year’ award last year, which was voted for by his peers in Scotland.

Peter offers several different types of squash coaching running 7 days a week, including junior coaching, one-on-one lessons and team coaching.

Saturday lunchtime Junior Sessions are run by Emma Ford and children can come along from the age of 5. They will learn the basics of squash as well as participating in fun games and drills. Emma also runs a Junior Club on a Monday evening, aimed at teenagers. Please contact Reception for more information.
