Box League

Squash box league is the easiest way to meet people at your skill level. Box league consists of several divisions with 6 - 7 players each. All players in a division play each other one time during a 6 - 7 week session. The winner and runner-up of each box will advance to the next highest box, while the two bottom-placed players will drop into the next lowest box.

Registration

Players who have not entered the box league from the start may enter at the beginning of any league session by contacting any of the squash pros. Club members can also record match results online.

Fee

This program is complimentary for all PAC members.
