If you’re getting this petition request, it’s because I think you LOVE doubles squash almost as much as you LOVE the B&R. Is that possible?
Yes - it’s been too long away from the "Zimmerman lets", "Tuckwell's reverses", "BRUUCE's drops", and the "The Tats touch". We’re all super keen to get back on our home court!
With the great fire of 2017, we actually have an opportunity to expand doubles squash at the B&R by adding a 2nd doubles squash court as part of the reconstruction. But we have to act NOW to make sure the Board knows how important this is to all of us!
Let's reflect on this amazing community at the B&R:
- A very vibrant section of talented, new and improving doubles keeners
- A group of gals, guys and juniors who play often and regularly with each other
- The best ProAM in the country - if not North America - in any sport
- The very inclusive Seagram Shaker
- A super social group who plays, eats, competes and occasionally drinks together :-)
- A generous and talented group of current and ex-Pros who play with us often
Oh yea, let's remember: 4 tennis, 3 badminton, 2 platform and 1 doubles squash court!
But we can change that if we step up and sign this petition. Please pass it on to other members you don't see on the "signed" list as I don't have everyone's email. I'll be sure to pass on our wishes to the Board in short order.
Thank you on behalf of all the members I've discussed this with who share my views.

Doubles Squash is on the ascendancy and we need a second court. Baby boomers having more time will play more doubles. A great draw for new members.
Another court will bring lots of new members who want to join because of our great doubles community. They will bring family members with them.
I was there watching my husband narrowly lose the semi-finals match of the Cheesbrough Classic the night before the fire. The Club was electric and the doubles squash court an amazing bundle of energy! Would love to see a second doubles court!
More Doubles! Mores Squash! Even better Pro-Ams! It would be wonderful to add another court; a new club= more players! Great addition. Make it two.
The B&R has become a doubles Mecca and is attracting new members to the club but like tennis and parking we are at or near capacity. Unlike Parking and tennis with the rebuild we have a one in a lifetime opportunity to add another doubles court. Let’s make sure we ADD ANOTHER DOUBLES SQUASH COURT to the rebuild.
all for it! that would be a HUGE addition...
I can feel the momentum building...

As Squash Ontario Executive Director I can confirm the B&R has THE BEST Pro-am in the world and is one of the Top 5 doubles clubs in the country. Imagine the possibilities with two courts - world class tournaments, expanded member usage, more singles court time freed up with more doubles availability. This opportunity too good to pass up. Squash Ontario will support in any and all ways possible.
