Key Information
To play squash all you need is a ball, a racket, a friend and a wall.
Currently, we support the delivery of the BUCS Centralised Leagues for squash in Scotland, which consists of Men’s Tier 1, Men’s Tier 2 and Women’s Tier 1. The leagues are contested over multiple weekends throughout Semester 1 in order to lower travel costs for teams and to create a better atmosphere for the tournament – with everyone competing in the same venue.
In addition, there is an annual Scottish Student Squash Championships, consisting of a men’s and a women’s Championship event to find the best student squash players in Scotland.
