Helmores Estate Agents in Crediton are pleased to announce that they have chosen to sponsor Crediton Squash Club for the 2015/2016 season.

The club takes team squash to some of the highest level in the county and runs 3 teams in the Devon Squash League with their first team currently ranked 3rd in Devon at the half way stage in the season.

Phil Morgan, Partner, Helmores is a member of the Crediton squash club and represents Crediton in the Devon League. When asked if Helmores wanted to be the club sponsor with advertising on the shirts and the ‘tins’, he said it was a ‘no-brainer’ as squash is the most popular racquet sport in the UK and Crediton are ranked the third best club in Devon, striving to be number one.  

He said; “We designed everything in house, and even fitted the advertising on the squash courts ourselves and Rob Stoyle, Partner, edited film to go with it in our Helmores Media and Aerial Film Department.

Crediton runs 3 teams in the Devon Squash League with their first team currently ranked 3rd in Devon at the half way stage in the season. The 2nd team are currently second and are one of the favourites for back to back promotions. The 3rd team are third in their league and only behind Newton Abbot on points difference and with promotion a distinct possibility.   

Crediton Squash is an extremely popular squash club, which has over 100 members and is based at Lords Meadow Leisure Centre, affiliated by England Squash. The two glass backed courts are some of the finest courts in Devon. There is a club night on a Friday and squash coaching is provided by one of the Premier League players, Crediton based Ashley Knight.

Kirton Youth, which is run by Angie Andrews, trains around 20 juniors aged between 10 and 18 years old on a Saturday morning at the club. Helmores are delighted to be sponsoring the ‘A’ graded tournament to be held at Lords Meadow Leisure Centre, with some of the best junior squash players in Devon taking part in the competition.   

If you are interested in playing squash, pop along to the club on a Friday between 7pm and 9pm at Lords Meadow Leisure Centre.
