News and events

22 November - One-Day Graded Tournament

Dulwich Squash Club with CM Stringers will host another one-day graded event on 22 November 2025. Entries will open shortly. Check link for latest information.

39 years of squash league organisation at DSC!

Since 1986, Graham Ashton (our former Club President) has single-handedly organised our leagues tables. I am pleased to announce that after his 300th league he is passing the baton!

With 200 participants, spread over 30 boxes, it is clear the leagues have been the bedrock of our club. We are immensely grateful for his dedication and insightful leadership (or... "don't argue with me" approach!).

He will be handing over league organiser duties to John Gillman. John will be in charge of the next league in November. Thank you, Graham and welcome, John!

The photo is of the 300th league being finalised (L-R: Graham, John and Nikhil Roy - Club President).
