National Squash Centre
A moveable glass show court with seating around it is the piece of equipment that decides where squash championships go, and this record is the archive’s description of the one the city built.
The court and seat notes are kept as published. Both of the archive’s squash championships were played here — the international meeting and the national championships.
The Centre provides six state of the art squash courts and one glass-walled moveable show court – seating 1,200 spectators.
Along with an established sports development programme for squash, the centre hosts a number of local, national and international tournaments where anyone can play or if you prefer, watch the very best in the world in action, in Manchester.
Located within the Sportcity complex, the centre shares a building with Manchester Regional Arena and Sportcity Health & Fitness as well as the home for Manchester Sport and Leisure Trust, English Institute of Sport, England Squash and Racketball and Manchester Squash Club.
