About us
Back Wall Buddies Squash Social Club is for anyone who enjoys squash and wants a relaxed place to play, learn, and meet other people around the courts. We’re a mix of regular players, returners who haven’t picked up a racket in years, and beginners still figuring out the rules. The idea is simple: share what we know, get some good rallies in, and make the sport feel a little less intimidating.
Our meetups usually include casual games, friendly round-robins, and informal skillsharing on things like serves, footwork, shot selection, or surviving a much faster opponent. There’s no coaching hierarchy and no pressure to be competitive; if you have a useful tip, feel free to pass it on, and if you’re here mostly for the exercise and company, that’s completely fine too. Come along with your racket, bring questions if you have them, and we’ll do our best to match people up so everyone gets a decent game.
