THE CLAYMORE CUP
In April, our Squash team took to The Tanglin Club for the annual Claymore Cup
competition – organized by Tanglin for the past 3 years. In a tense encounter, The
Club triumphed by a narrow margin of 7.5 to 7 points in an afternoon comprising
12 competitive matches. The trophy was proudly claimed by Member Mohit for
The Club, ensuring the long-awaited return of the Cup to the top of Claymore Hill
where it will be defended next year.
THE AMERICAN CLUB OPEN SQUASH TOURNAMENT

As can be seen, The Club’s Squash community is a highly active, enthusiastic and
competitive yet greatly hospitable, fun and friendly group comprising Members
of all ages – from teenagers to those well into their 70s.
Whether you’re a beginner or an expert, we welcome you to join us and enjoy
the fun, camaraderie and sportsmanship that squash encourages, while getting
the single most efficient calorie burning workout of any sport, in all weathers.
For those interested in improving their game skills, lessons are available from our
regular coach Robino as well as from visiting international coaches.
With the upcoming Club renovations, we also expect
to regain our third court (a multi-purpose court) – and,
with the new and bigger relocated Union Bar
proposed just a few steps away – there’s no
better combination for sweat and rehydration!
We look forward to your company.
