Forthill Leagues
At Forthill Squash club we run internal mixed club leagues from beginners through to more experienced players. All members are welcome to join these leagues.
League games can be arranged via Sporty HQ and matches are to be played within the stated timeframe. Scores are recorded on Sporty HQ by either player once the match has finished. Matches are played to 15 and best of 5 games and the point system is explained on Sporty HQ, should you need help.
Forthill Squash Teams
In addition to the internal leagues, we have men’s and ladies’ teams that compete in the Dundee & District Squash Rackets League covering Tayside & Fife. If you wish to get involved in the team games, please contact us.

I started playing squash at Forthill 41 years ago when my 3rd son was one. No coaching, very little time to spare for sport and 3 young children, I started playing and immediately loved the game. The game only lasted an hour, then I returned to a busy household, exhausted and exhilarated. I joined the Buddies team and have played for them, meeting loads of teams around Tayside, for nearly 40 years. My fourth baby didn’t stop me. She sat in her pram at the back of the court listening to the thwack of the ball off the walls.
I still play for Buddies Forthill and although there are fewer teams in the DDRSA league, we still have fun. I’m 70 in a few days and still love the game. You’re never too old as long as you maintain your fitness. I’m a coach at Forthill and love seeing the little ones come along to learn the game. Our family have a “PARKY” tournament every year where 3 generations play the game. My third son and 2 of his children now play at Forthill. Let’s hope I can watch them flourish and enjoy this amazing game.
