In-house doubles — Notes
The 9PM slot each night open for booking.
The summer looks to be in full swing — at least weather-wise, and many are planning trips. So, if you plan on some fishing, getting away from it all, or, perhaps, heading to the Antarctic for a change of pace, please let Lynn Broman know if you wish your in-house doubles availability, profile, or preferences, to be adjusted. Player preferences, as used for this week's schedule, are available on-line.
If any groups decide not to play, please notifiy Rob Forrest, or Dana Merritt so that the court may be freed for web booking.
If you are unable to make your match, you are responsible for arranging a replacement. Lynn doesn't mind giving a hand in the search; but, it is your responsibility.
In-house Doubles — Ladder
Lynn has begun using the Evergreen Doubles Ladder to give guidance in setting up the foursomes for in-house doubles.
Consequently, you are encouraged to record all your doubles activity on the club ladder. The more data, the more reliable the rankings.
In-house doubles — Want to join in?

Doubles Tournaments — Coming Up
Nothing to mention at this time.
General Doubles — Notes
Vancouver Doubles Squash League
Season opens late September. Matches are Wednesdays 6 - 10pm.
Those who have already responded to a captain, or Tim Martin, you are done. If you wish to play but have not contacted Tim Martin, do so now. The club has submitted its application for the coming season.
Evergreen Doubles Ladder
We have fairly detailed information about getting a password for the club ladder on Quick-Draws, and, thereafter, recording scores available on-line.
Evergreen Squash Club — Fun Fast Fit
Extend your squash life!
An Evergreen Squash Club membership is one terrific value.
Been playing singles for a few years, and starting to feel a little slower, or not quite as youthful. Perhaps, not quite as fit as one once was. Then, I believe, doubles squash is what you are looking for.
Still fit enough to get on court, have good racquet skills, and able to anticipate your opponent's next shot, then you have what it takes to become a good doubles player. If you have always depended on your speed to compensate for your less than stellar skills, you should likely avoid the doubles court.
I think you will be pleasantly surprised at how much enjoyment you will get out of the game. Don't have a doubles court at your club? Join Evergreen, either as a full member (so you can keep playing singles), or as a "doubles only" member, and keep the membership at your current club.
