The club offers tennis, squash, cricket and gym facilities and is the home for Dumfries Tennis Club, Dumfries Squash Club and Dumfries Cricket Club. The facilities are also used by Dumfries Running Club and Dumfries Hockey Club.
In preparation for the summer seasons junior sport is already well underway on Saturday mornings with 4 junior tennis coaching sessions for different age groups and cricket training sessions for the club’s 18’s. This year the club has also introduced squash coaching for those wanting to learn and improve their game which is proving to be popular.
The club’s squash competitions are nearing their final stages with the 3rd round of the Jim Thorburn handicap being completed this week with numbers having been whittled down from the original entry of 52. The finale to the season, the Club Finals night, takes place on Friday the 16th April and Nunholm is also the venue of the U-30 Dumfries and Galloway Closed Squash Tournament which takes place this weekend on Friday and Saturday.

Squash: Dumfries bags 3 titles at BOA Masters
16 02 2010Dumfries Squash Club was represented at the penultimate Scottish Squash Masters tournament of the season at the Bridge of Allan Masters last weekend and came away with three titles out of the five contested and out of the 9 men’s titles on offer.
Dumfries’ “young” lads, Davy Rogan and Abbie Robertson, both won their respective age-groups. Davy Rogan won all three of his round-robin matches to secure the O-75s title, while Abbie Robertson had a tough 3-2 semi-final win before an easier 3-0 final win to secure the O-70s title.
In the O-45s current Scottish Champion Jimmy Wells was in excellent form once again. He won his quarter-final 3-1 and in the semi-final he defeated Lockerbie’s Ronnie Carter 3-1 and won the title with a commanding performance in the final winning 3-0 over Tam Adams from Crieff.
In the O-50s, Keith Gristwood secured a 3-2 win in the Plate final. Read the rest of this entry »

Squash: SOS Masters follow-up
20 01 2010Dear Members,
Now that the tournament accounts have been finalised and the Festive season is well and truly over for another year, I thought I’d report back to you on our inaugural South of Scotland Masters Open Squash Championships.

At subsequent tournaments, several players who couldn’t make it to Dumfries indicated that they’d heard all about it and would be attending next year.
In economic terms, the tournament was a big success: Read the rest of this entry »
