Session request

Tell us what you need.

Before you arrive

A little context makes the first session better.

You do not need to know your formal level. A short description of how often you play and what your rallies currently look like is enough to start the conversation.

  • Tell us whether you have played squash before and for roughly how long.
  • Mention whether you are looking for learning, regular practice or competitive games.
  • Bring clean indoor court shoes and comfortable movement clothing.
  • If you already use a racket, bring it; if not, ask about equipment options when arranging the visit.
Describe your squash clearly

A useful request gives us the shape of your current game.

You do not need specialist vocabulary. A few practical details make it much easier to understand what kind of session is relevant.

01

Playing history

Say whether you are completely new, returning after a break or currently playing regularly. If you compete, mention the level of games you normally find comfortable or challenging.

02

Rally picture

Describe what usually happens in a rally. For example: length breaks down under pace, backhand preparation feels late, movement into the front corners is awkward or points end before you can build pressure.

03

Main goal

Choose a practical outcome such as learning the rules, rallying more consistently, improving movement, preparing for club matches, developing one specific shot or understanding tactics against different styles.

04

Preferred format

Tell us whether you are mainly interested in a first orientation, group practice, individual coaching or organised games. If you are unsure, the description of your level and goal is enough to start.

Your first court visit

Know the practical basics before you arrive.

The first visit is easier when equipment, timing and expectations are simple. The aim is to spend court time learning and playing, not solving avoidable logistics.

Arrive early enough to change shoes, find the court and settle before the session begins. Clean indoor non-marking shoes are important for grip and court care. Comfortable sports clothing that allows lunging and rotation is usually sufficient. If you already have a racket, bring it; if not, mention that when arranging the visit so equipment options can be discussed.

New players can expect basic orientation around the court, scoring and safe movement before longer rallies are introduced. Experienced players can use the first session to establish pace, consistency and current priorities. In either case, the most useful starting point is an honest picture of what you can do now rather than trying to fit yourself into a formal label.

If you already keep notes from matches or practice, you can mention one recurring pattern rather than sending a long history. Examples might include losing control when the pace increases, struggling to recover after a short shot, finding the backhand corner difficult or wanting to create more pressure from a good length. Specific situations give a clearer starting point than a broad request to “improve everything.”

Clear information also helps keep the first court conversation focused on the parts of squash that matter most to you.

  • Bring clean indoor court shoes and suitable movement clothing.
  • Share any scheduling constraints in the request so a practical time can be considered.
  • Ask about a training route if you are unsure whether group or individual work fits your goal.
  • Use the message field to mention one or two situations in your game that you most want to change.
Useful first-visit questions

What players usually ask us.

These are the details that help a new player choose a suitable starting point.

Do I need match experience?

No. First Court is built for people who need scoring, court movement and basic racket skills explained from the beginning.

Can I join if I already play?

Yes. Describe your rally consistency, recent playing frequency and the areas you want to improve so we can suggest a suitable session.

Can I focus on one problem?

Yes. Individual sessions can target a specific shot, movement pattern, serve-return issue or tactical situation.

What should I write if I am not sure of my level?

Describe the longest rallies you can normally sustain, whether you can serve and return consistently, how often you play and which parts of the court feel most difficult. Those practical details are more useful than guessing a label.

Can I come with a regular playing partner?

Yes. If you already practise with someone, mention both players' experience and the type of work you want to do. Partner sessions can be useful for repeatable patterns, conditioned rallies and learning how to give each other a consistent feed.

What if my main goal changes?

That is normal. A player may begin with technique and later discover that match decisions, movement or serve return is the bigger limitation. Training can be adjusted as new patterns become visible, so the starting request does not lock you into one theme.
