Squash was introduced to Finchley Manor Club in the late 1960s. Since then all of our courts and changing rooms have been upgraded and modernised. Today we have four first class courts, modern changing rooms, regular club nights, active ladder leagues, inter club team matches and a large and growing membership.

Ladder Leagues & Club Nights
Much of our members’ squash revolves around the Ladder Leagues and regular Club Nights.
The ladder leagues consist of sets of five or six players who play each other within an (approximately) monthly period. Promotion and relegation follows the completion of each league.
Club Nights take place every Sunday (except holidays) throughout the year. The purpose of Club Night is to give members and prospective members an opportunity to play social squash. To this end the two hour session is divided into short playing blocks, with each player getting twenty minutes on and twenty minutes off court.
New members are especially welcome at these evenings to meet new people and to get a feel of the club.
Coaching
An important service that we offer to members is first-rate coaching. One-on-one or small group coaching is available.
Because the squash section feels that good coaching is the key to increasing one’s enjoyment of the game many of these sessions are subsidised to encourage members to sign up for them.

Each member has a credit account, with its own ID and PIN, from which the WBBS automatically deducts the cost of booking and playing.Once your court is booked and paid for, you turn up and play. Court lights come on automatically.

Team Play & Competition
For the more serious player Team Squash has been played here since the early days of the Middlesex leagues.
Currently we are well represented and have three or four men’s teams in the Middlesex Winter and Summer Leagues plus four or five teams of Veterans and Vintage players.

Junior Squash
Linked to our coaching activities are our very popular Saturday Morning sessions of Junior Squash. This area is one of our recent success stories.
With our junior membership approaching seventy or eighty in most seasons we have four coaches on hand who are able to offer high quality coaching to juniors of all standards.
Several of our juniors are county champions in their respective age groups and many play regularly in the inter-club junior leagues organised by Middlesex SRA.
