The Club is based at the One Leisure Huntingdon Centre. It caters for all those who wish to enjoy social or competitive squash and racketball (Squash 57). 

The club has much to offer and wants to do more for its members with your help and input. Our committee is fully committed to putting on lots of events for the benefit of our members and to encourage the uptake of squash and racketball in the community.
