Banquet Party and Doubles “Shin Dig” Tourney
Hi Everyone!
I am excited to announce the dates for our upcoming Doubles Parsons “Shin Dig” Tournament and our end of the season banquet party.
The sign-up sheets will be posted soon on the boards outside the doubles courts (for the Shin-dig).
Here are the details…
Parson’s “Shin-Dig” Doubles Tournament
For those of you who have participated in this annual event, you will remember that it is an absolute blast! Here is how it works…
The tournament will be played on the evenings of Wed. April 26th-Sat. April 29th (daytime matches on Sat.). The first 32 players to sign up are guaranteed a spot so sign up asap! Once the sign up is complete, teams will be made as even as possible so that all teams have a fair shot at winning the tourney and having their names on the big trophy. We make the teams so you don’t need to sign up with a partner.
If you decide to sign up, please make note of the dates and have them available. The draw and start times will be sent out the week prior to the tournament. No doubles playing experience necessary! I encourage all players to participate as this is a great opportunity to discover how much fun doubles squash can be.
The Annual Squash Club Banquet is Back! YEAH!!!
Lastly, we all know that any fun event at the club requires a social night! This year we have a themed party event that you won’t soon forget! Saddle up everyone because we are going to cause quite the “racquet at the rodeo”!
Here are the details:
Date: Sat. April 29th
Time: 6:00pm ‘Til the cows come home
Where: Drums ‘N Flats (California Sandwiches) Main Floor
Address: 60 Randall Drive, Ajax
Ticket cost: $30 -Ticket includes dinner, drink ticket and Live Band (Blue Thumb Envy with our good friend Ron Delavigne on drums!!)
There will also be tournament awards, prizes for best dressed and some fun games. Please feel free to bring your significant other or a friend. You can reserve your tickets by sending me an email. We will need to know numbers so if you plan on coming, please send me an email and let me know! Our whole club should be at this event so please come out and help celebrate our club.
Dig out a plaid shirt or your best western outfit and let’s celebrate another successful season at the squash club.
See everyone on the courts,
Nicole
Retro Squash Event NOV 19th Has Been Cancelled
Hello Pickering Squash Players:
The Retro Squash Fun event originally scheduled for Friday November 19th has been CANCELLED due to low sign-up.
Unfortunately we had a very low response to the sign up for this event. We are attributing this low response to our membership being cautious with regard to close contact while we are still in the COVID-19 pandemic. We are sorry for any inconvenience this may have caused our membership but fully support your caution in this difficult time.
The PSC Executive have made the decision to cancel the event with the idea of possibly rescheduling sometime in the New Year. When the pandemic is declared over, we will then again be scheduling events such as tournaments and fun nights.
Please stay safe.
