First match times (and venues) on Friday are as follows:

Plate events will be held for all 1^st round losers, who are expected to play in the plate unless genuinely injured. Due to court/time constraints, it is unlikely we can include players who have byes or walkovers in the 1^st round and lose their first match in the 2^nd round. Please check with registration at the time to confirm this.

You must be ready to play at the scheduled time of your match. Please follow results on Sporty HQ and ask at the tournament desk to check any last-minute changes, and ensure you have checked the time of your next match after your previous one. A link to Sport HQ will be available when the draw goes live.

Those playing at the Nottingham Squash Rackets Club will be required to mark the next match on court after yours, as there will be no referees present. Referees will be present at David Ross Sports Village however those competing on Court 5 will need to mark the next match on court after yours.

There will be trophies for each category winner, runner-up and plate winner. Presentations will take place at the end of the tournament.

It is MANDATORY for all players under the age of 19 during the championships including on the last day of the championships must wear protective eye wear when competing as stated in the BUCS Squash Rules and Regs
