Coach Alan has been our Squash Coach for 3 years. He is friendly and very approachable. He also has a lot of experience with coaching (Squash Coach for Raffles) and is very detailed in his training programmes. Best part is that he does not just focus on repeating drills, he makes time for us to have fun playing matches as well! Be prepared for a good workout and a fun time of squash drills!

Serangoon Gardens Country Club is a bus ride away from Lorong Chuan MRT station. It might not be the most convenient location to travel to, but there are plenty of good food options in the area. It doesn’t hurt that the showers and changing rooms are air conditioned!
