About
the Club
Newton
Squash & Tennis Club is a private squash and tennis club owned
and operated by its members and conveniently located in Newton Centre,
just off Commonwealth Avenue near Centre Street. The Club was founded
in 1897 and is, today, the oldest squash and tennis club in the
country in continuous existence. The club underwent a major renovation
in 2001, and as a result the clubs facilities now include:
- 4
Har-Tru clay tennis courts;
- 2
new international squash courts (one expands to become a doubles
court);
- a
new fitness area equipped with aerobic and strength training equipment;
- and
new mens and womens locker rooms.
The
Clubs tennis courts are considered among the finest in New
England and are maintained daily to provide great playing conditions.
The new squash courts are state of the art and have also been heralded
for the quality of construction and the consistency of play. In
addition to free weights and strength training stations, the new
fitness room includes treadmills, a new elliptical machine, stationary
bikes and rowing machines.
Newton
Squash & Tennis Club offers a congenial atmosphere of good fellowship
and sportsmanship where many long-term relationships have been formed.
The club hosts regular social events as well, including an informal
dinner in December and a family barbecue in June. Annual tennis
and squash tournaments provide ways for members to meet other members
and make new friendships.
And
there are no extra court charges or fees, making the club a great
value for active players. Annual membership dues include the right
for members and their family to play daily with other club members
or their families. (There is a modest guest fee for non-members,
and a few specified prime-time hours that are limited
to primary members only). Access to the exercise room for members
and their families is also included in the annual fee. And our club
manager is regularly available to help make introductions for members
seeking players of comparable skill levels.
During
tennis season, the club employs a tennis pro who is available for
half-hour or hour long lessons. And during the squash season, a
squash pro is available for private or small group lessons.
The club also has a personal trainer available for members by appointment throughout the year.
