Hi Guys,

Squash South Africa has released updated guidelines for marking and refereeing. Please click on the link above to view.

All league players should be familiar with these guidelines.

These guidelines are also the course material used for the level 2 marking and refereeing courses currently being held by Northerns Squash Association.

Should you wish to take one of these courses, you may do so by following the link below:

JP Brits, SA National Champion, SA Team Captain, SA #1 and our Clubs #1 player has partnered with Harrow Squash and have launched the Harrow JP Squash Racket.

” I am proud to announce that my new custom made Harrow Signature squash racket has been released this weekend. Before I advertise on social media I would like to give my home club the opportunity to have first choice to purchase. Our members will have this opportunity unti Monday before sales will be open to the public.” JP Brits

There are a limited number of these rackets available and stocks are selling fast. The racket is selling for R2,200.

If you wish to buy a racket or would like some more information, please contact JP Brits directly on 079-455-3932.

In order to enable clubs to comply with the new requirements in the by-laws with regards to Marking & Refereeing Level 2 qualifications, the NSA has arranged 7 course dates.

The Association will sponsor the R80 per player for the course to a maximum of 2 players per team per league. If the player doesn’t pass the exam he will have to pay to do the course again.

Clubs will handle the administration and collection of any fees from players as they deem fit or in cases where more than 2 players per team want to attend a course. Players must register individually online. Clubs will be invoiced for the number of attendees exceeding the allowance of 2 per team.

Invoicing for Juniors who aren’t playing league will be handled in conjunction with the NJSA.

If we have received less than 20 bookings per session 3 days before the session date, the session will be canceled.

Download the guide and study it to prepare for the course to make it much more enjoyable and efficient: Guide – M&R – Getting it Right (2019) v1.5. Please note no printout will be provided at the course. Print your own and bring it along.
