Fresher?
Welcome to the University of Warwick! If you're on this page, you've come to the right place. Warwick Squash is the go-to club on campus if you're interested in socialising or playing squash!
Below you will find all of the details about our Welcome Week activities. There is even a handy 'Freshers Guide' at the bottom of this page which explains what all of our events are for!

Here is our Freshers' calendar for the upcoming year (2022/23). Freshers week runs from Mon 26th September to Sun 2nd October this year, and we will be hosting a mix of squash tasters and social events for everyone!
Feel free to come along to any (or all) of our events to meet some new people and see if squash is the club for you.
We are holding several Taster sessions throughout Welcome Week. This year we are running tasters at the following dates/times:
-
Tuesday (27/09): 7.00-9.00pm
-
Wednesday (28/09)L 11.00am-1.00pm
-
Thursday (29/09): 7.00-9.00pm
-
Friday (30/09): 11.30am-1.00pm, 1.30-3.00pm, 3.30-5.00pm
-
Saturday (01/10): 1.00pm-4.00pm
You have nothing to lose from coming down - free squash, lots of fun, and racquets and balls are provided so you have nothing to worry about. The sessions were extremely well attended in previous years, so if nothing else the sessions will be a great opportunity to meet some new people! We will try to make sure everyone gets a reasonable amount of time to play and our exec will be there to answer any questions you have.
Don't worry if you miss our tasters in Welcome Week as our first and second week of club nights will be open to everyone as tasters as well. Come on down from 19.00 to 21.00 on Tuesday and Thursday (Week 1 and 2) to give it a shot!
We only ask that you try to wear clean trainers (with non-marking soles if you have them). Shoes are the only piece of equipment that we can't provide!
Part of our taster sessions throughout Welcome Week will form our trials for the 2022/23 season. Don't worry, these aren't as scary as they sound! We would urge anyone who is a semi-regular player and has played competitively a bit before to come along to trials, as you'll be able to find out more about the competitive squash scene at Warwick and see if it's something that interests you!
We'll post full details nearer the time on our facebook page and our instagram page. In the mean time, our trials are scheduled for 3.30-5.00pm on Friday (30/09) and on Saturday (01/10) (Time TBC).
