As a registered Community Amateur Sports Club (CASC), Pontefract Squash & Leisure Club is a non-profit making organisation that’s run primarily for the benefit of the local community. At Global Windows, as a rather sporty team of individuals, we love getting involved with local sporting events. So, we wanted to share our latest news about Pontefract Squash Club with you.
Our Company Director Billy is a real squash fanatic and as a member of Pontefract Squash Club, he represents them in the Yorkshire League. Coupled with the fact that PSLC offers the best facilities in the area, for a wide range of sporting activities as well as squash, we thought it only right to become the main sponsor of the club for the 2018-2019 season.
Global Windows Sponsor Pontefract Squash Club
Split into two divisions, the annual Premier Squash League competition has been going for 35 years, with the best Northern and Southern squash clubs going head-to-head for the coveted title of National Champions. With fixtures planned both home and away from September to May, the top two teams progress to semi-finals and then a final is played over a weekend to determine the overall champion.
Showcasing some of the very best players that Squash has to offer, it was only right that the Pontefract team kicked off the prestigious Premier Squash League Season.
It was an exciting evening; the home crowd was buzzing with some top-quality squash on display from both teams.
After three action-packed hours of entertainment, we’re proud to say that Pontefract won the 1st match of the season – with a 4-1 win over the Elite Squash Bristol team.
The 2018 National Squash Champions were the southern team Luxfords St George’s Hill. So, we look forward to seeing a northern squash team at the PSL knockout competition in May 2019!

We’d also like to take this opportunity to congratulate the Pontefract Women’s Squash Team who came 3rd in this year’s Women’s European Squash Club Championships.
