Reopen for business - UR River Campus Box League

February 22nd, 2008 Mithun Mukherjee posted in General, Leagues

A growing interest in squash among the student body at UR has led to the revival of the UR River Campus (formerly UR Zornow) Box league. Now thats awesome! (Thanks to Chris Muir for Boxleague support.)
To sign up for the March boxes email the league administrator, Jason Robin or click on the “Join or Drop Out” link on the league page which can be accessed from the sidebar under Club Leagues. —>
Note: To be eligible to play in the URRC box league, you must be a UR student, staff, faculty or R-club member. Also, the varsity team has priority over court reservations, so please check their practice and clinic schedule before reserving courts.
Play squash….have fun!

Coming soon: RailStation and the Winter League!

December 18th, 2007 Mithun Mukherjee posted in General, Leagues

As we enter the last stretch of the Fall league and some of us prepare to hang up our racquets for the holidays (notice I said only “some of us”), there is much to look forward to in the next season.

The 2007-2008 winter league will begin in the week of January 14th and continue on until the end of March. Note to all team captains: Please send in your team submissions to your club rep by December 31st.

This is a great way to play outside your club and meet other squashers around the city. Each week, teams from each division and each club square off against each other in a best-of-3 match. Points are tallied at the end of the season and the top teams duke it out in a final playoff. A chance to win a team plaque, league champ t-shirts and other goodies. If you are not in a team already and would like to join the winter league action, please contact your club rep to sign up and they will assign you to a team based on your skill level. Ohh and….Happy Holidays! :)

RailStation:
This winter season we will be using our existing Boxleague league management system and also trying out US Squash’s RailStation. We are very excited to give this a try. A major benefit of Railstation is that each league match counts toward your US Squash national rating and ranking.
Team captains, please report your scores into both systems. Click on the Railstation link on the right sidebar to log in and report scores into RailStation. To report scores into BoxLeague, click on the appropriate link to your division on the right sidebar.

Team League Rules

October 19th, 2006 Chris Thomas posted in Leagues

The team league rules have been updated and can be accessed via the link in the menu. There appears to be a lot of fuzziness around team composition and subsititution so a re-write will likely be done before the winter season.

Get ready for the new season

2006 League Survey

August 15th, 2006 Mithun Mukherjee posted in General, Leagues

As the RSRA board gears up for the new season, we have had a few interesting suggestions regarding the city team league structure. For those new to the RSRA and SquashRochester, the city team league consists of three divisions - I, II and III. One or two 3-member teams from each club participate in each division and play weekly home and away matches against each other based on a predetermined schedule. This is a great opportunity to play at clubs around the city, meet new people and improve your game. Over the past many years, this schedule has stretched from October to April. Read more »
