Join Squash and Racketball Membership

Whether you are a beginner, intermediate or advanced squash player, the squash courts at Exeter Golf and Country Club have been described as some of the best in the South West by England Squash and Racketball. There is group and individual coaching available for members of Exeter Golf and Country Club with one of the country’s top squash coaches, Mike Harris. From a social point of view, there are lots of friendly tournaments, but if you want to compete or improve then you can take up coaching with our team of highly qualified and experienced coaches or join the ladders and compete on a wider scale.

Why play squash or racketball?

Squash is a social sport that keeps your fitness levels high, burning more calories than any other sport, using all your major muscle groups and promotes a high level of flexibility.

Whether you are new to squash or already play at competitive level, you’ll receive a warm welcome by our friendly players. There is a real sense of camaraderie amongst the squash players at Exeter Golf and Country Club, with regular club nights, friendly tournaments, get-togethers in the bar and dinner events.

Racketball is the fastest growing racket sport in the country as it’s similar to squash but is simpler to play and easier on the body. Racketball and squash are available for all our Racket Members to play, along with tennis, and is actually very popular with tennis players on wet days!
