Membership Renewals 2024

Dear [[firstname]],

As I am sure that you are already aware, the England Squash Player Membership model is changing. There is some detail in the text below from England Squash to explain more about it and additional detail on their website. Previously, where the School have paid the £15 ES player membership, England Squash have removed this option, choosing instead a direct model where individuals pay their own membership.

The county are still considering their position on this situation, and whether or not they maintain their ES affiliation. If they do, individuals will need an ES membership to play for a team. The same is true of any ES affiliated competition.

We had hoped, in conjunction with the schools, that we would be able to pay memberships on behalf of members who had renewed before the cut off, and ES were teasing an option of clubs being able to buy vouchers for their members. However this has not happened.

The school have offered to credit members membership accounts on My Courts with £15 of those members who renew BEFORE the cut off and have agreed to extend the renewal cut off to the 31st August.

If there are any questions please do not hesitate to drop me a line.

Many thanks,

Phil

England Squash Membership is changing

England Squash Membership is changing on 19 August to better connect players, coaches and clubs, and unite the squash community.

The new scheme will provide a flexible and accessible gateway to squash that will support the game to thrive, allow more people to discover the game of their lives and enable more people to feel part of our unique community.

So what's changing?

Currently, your England Squash player membership is paid by the club which is affiliated to England Squash. From August, player membership and club affiliation will be split which means you will need to purchase your player membership directly from England Squash when our club affiliation is due for renewal on 31st August

When it's time to purchase your player membership, you'll be able to choose from five membership categories that offer unbeatable value including discounts of up to 70% off SQUASHTV. We'll support you with the transition and signpost you to where to sign up before your England Squash player membership is due to lapse.

Where membership fees goes

100% of England Squash membership fees are re-invested right back into the sport. Your membership will help to grow the game you love - from supporting clubs like ours to deliver ground-breaking programmes like Mixed Ability Squash to delivering 100+ competitive opportunities for juniors every year.
