Squash (Medics)
Squash is a fast-paced energetic racket sport enjoyed by players for more than 130 years, and now played by more than 15 million people in over 150 countries. With a quick 30 minute game burning up to 500 calories it’s not only a great way to socialise and compete, but also a superb way to get ripped/sexyhot.
Medical school squash had a long and proud tradition at the amalgamated medical schools which make up ICSM. The great thing about squash is that unlike other sports you don’t need two teams of 10 odd bodies to play. A lot of our members play as and when they can, often as a second sport. We practice every Sunday at 3pm and Wednesday at 2.15pm at the Charing Cross sports club and whatever your standard you’ll be assured a good game.
Some might say that the best thing about squash is the drink in the bar afterwards and we take these wise words extremely seriously, creating a lively social scene within the club. Our members are of all sorts of people of all sorts of standards from across the medical school.
And for those of you who are put off by kit requirements, fear not as we have a large supply of brand new shoes and rackets for use by our members.
