JUNIOR SQUASH

IRISH SQUASH COVID UPDATE NOVEMBER 1st 2021

Sport Ireland released updated guidance for the indoor sport sector which will remain in place until the end of February 2022 at least. See HERE

It is clear from the guidelines that a greater range of activities is feasible where all participants provide proof of immunity to Covid-19 infection.

The board of Irish Squash wants to ensure that our sport can restart for as many people as possible both within our clubs and at competitive events.

Therefore we have agreed that for any tournament that is open to players from more than one club, all participants must provide proof of immunity to Covid-19 as a condition of entry.  This applies to all senior and masters competitions. It also applies to any junior entering into a senior event.

The situation for U12 and U18 players in junior competitions is unclear at present and Sport Ireland have requested clarification on this from the Department of Sport. Whilst awaiting this information, we cannot proceed with junior competitions listed on our calendar. We appreciate that this is a difficult situation for many people and we will provide a further update as soon as possible.

At club level, it is feasible to operate pods of up to 6 players (for training sessions at the same time or for round robin events) without the need to prove immunity to Covid-19 infection. For any player who is not immune to Covid-19, they are restricted to one squash pod only within their club and may not play in any inter-club competition.

As always, anyone who is unwell with symptoms suggestive of Covid-19 infection (whether you are vaccinated or not) should stay at home and follow public health advice regarding testing for Covid. Social distancing, mask wearing indoors and hand hygiene measures should continue to be observed.

Please check our website and social media platforms for further updates.

Gym rules

A quick reminder to all those using the gym that you must book in online and stick to your time slot. Please sign in when you arrive and sanitise all machines before and after use. Thank you for the co-operation so far, lets keep it up and keep each other safe.

 

Booking System Reminders - Important!

Reminder to all members using the Airhall
As per booking rules: “A playing player cannot avail of two consecutive time slots even if the time slots are booked by an opponent in singles or separate players from the doubles partnership.” In simple terms, no player should stay in the Airhall for two consecutive hours.

There is a huge demand for indoor tennis in the winter months so we all need to be fair to other members. Thank you for your understanding.

Reminder re naming opponents on the Booking System

When booking courts online please name your opponents on the booking. Ideally name opponent/s when the court is being booked.

If you do not know the name of your opposition at the time of booking please amend your booking with the name/names before you play.

Safety entering/ Exiting the Club

It has been brought to our attention that the level of pedestrians/ cyclists on the main road coming out of the club is quite busy, please take care when entering/exiting the club to ensure safety.

Club Vouchers

Club vouchers are now available at reception for those who may be interested, these vouchers can be used in any area of the club.
