"Venue, food etc. excellent - very professional and welcoming. The
Course was excellent too, taught enthusiastically by a coach who had
a real passion for the game. Exhausting but inspiring, and I would
recommend this course to others - I will
make it an annual event. Thanks for a great 3 days ..."

ADULT WEEKEND SQUASH COURSES |
Graham Stevenson’s week-long
Junior Squash Holidays were world-famous, attracting ambitious young players
from all parts of the globe.
Weekend Courses have been introduced to satisfy
the numerous adults who loved the idea of a whole week’s coaching but felt
that they could spare/justify only a couple of days.
Now it’s your turn!
The Coach:
Graham Stevenson (grahamstevenson@onetel.com)
is simply one of the most experienced coaches in the
country – an SRA Level 4 Professional Coach and Tutor, he is also the author
of the Collins Coaching Guide ‘How to Coach Squash’.
Graham was an S.R.A. (now England Squash) Regional Coach for 17 years, and
Coach to the National Junior Squads from 1981, for nearly as long. He has
been running intensive Squash courses since the 1970's!

Duration:
Weekend courses run from 7pm Friday to 5.30 pm Sunday, with a bit of spare
time in between. All programmes are carefully ‘paced’, so survival is not a
problem.
Venue:
Courses now usually take place at the splendid Bluecoat Leisure Centre, at
Christs Hospital School, near Horsham, Sussex. This warm and airy venue has
proved to be excellent for staging all manner of Squash events, and is ideal
for the Adult Courses.
Directions:
Christs Hospital is to be found just off the A-24, south of Horsham. It is
signed from the Hop Oast roundabout. For those with sat.nav., the postcode
is RH13 0YB. Simply follow signs for 'Sports Centre' once on the School
campus. For those travelling by train, 'Christs Hospital' Station is on the
mainline out of London Victoria to Bognor Regis, and is only a 5 minute walk
from the Leisure Centre.
Standard:
Each course is tailored to those who apply but is designed to be suitable
for a wide range of standards and experience, from ‘improver’ through to
club team player. If you are interested but anxious about your playing
level, call Graham for reassurance!
Age:
Players should be over 18, but there is no upper limit!
Format:
Weekend courses comprise 15 hours of coaching.
Players are arranged in groups of no more than four to a court and the
programme emphasises:
 | refining racket skills, |
| improving shot selection and
|
| reducing error |
so there is both a technical and a tactical content; there
may well be time for a little fitness work too!
All players receive a course folder of notes, and the whole approach can
best be described as ‘fun with hard work’.
Improvement is difficult to avoid!
Cost:
£225.00 per person.
Price include lunches and supper on the Friday but exclude accommodation.
Cheques should be made payable to ‘Graham Stevenson’ and the full fee should
accompany the application form.
Booking:
If you would like to join us, for what promises to be another most enjoyable
and informative weekend’s squash, just download the

Cancellation:
In the event of cancellation more than a month before the commencement of
the course, the full fee will be refunded, less a cancellation fee to cover
administrative costs. In the event of cancellation less than a month before
the commencement of the course, the fee will be refunded, less the
cancellation fee, only if a suitable replacement can be found.
