Leckhampton Facilities

Squash court

The squash courts are now open (as of 12/04/21).

The squash court is highly popular, so to ensure it's free when you want to play you should book a court online using the JCR's squash court booking system. Please try to keep the court as safe as possible by only wearing suitable (clean!) footwear. There are a few spare rackets and a couple balls by the court - do look after them.

Tennis courts in general

The tennis courts are now available to use (as of 29/03/21).

Rackets & balls are normally kept next to the squash court. At the times when tennis has been allowed but squash hasn’t (29/03/21 - 12/04/21), the captain (David Hardman), has been getting these to whoever wants them: drop him an email (dsh46) or facebook message.
