Hi All,

Christmas and Sonkhran over, "summer season" ie rains coming, gotta lose some kilos, anyone on for some SQUASH ?

Courts at Patong (still?), Kamala and Laguna (not sure if just for guests...)

Cheers,

Sleesy.

Yes still courts at Patong & I maybe keen but am not great!

Where's the court in Patong...... where it was on the Third row is a poxy French Arab pizza joint now.

will drive past again later, but was there a few day ago.......wasn't it?

I'll play if you want to come down to Karon and play at the Hilton.

I knew I should've kept my squash racket.

But really, not sure if I could even get through the 'warming up the ball' stage as I'm at least 20 Kg heavier than when I played last!

I think we're ALL 20Kg heavier than we were when we used to play !

Sure looked like a pizza joint to me when I went past last evening. A closed one at that.

Hilton is 5 minutes farther south and has A/C courts, a full changing room with showers etc.

Patong has indeed gone

Good as in know how to play.

Good as in know what a let is. :-}

I'm not too experienced with squash either (something like 5 years) but would enjoy a good exercising game with drives, cross courts, drops..

OK sounds fine to me ! Will PM you .....

The Outrigger Laguna Beach Resort (former Laguna Beach Resort) has a squash court open to non guests for a fee. Raquet rental as well plus locker roon and shower.

Does anyone know what the Karon Hilton charges for a 6 month squash membership?

Or what the Outrigger Laguna Beach facilities are like and what they charge for 1 month or 6 month memberships?

Outrigger OK, 400thb per hour, nice facilities, couple of small issues re the court itself ie the SKIRTING board, maybe not as good as Hilton Karon but suffices ....

Thanks,

Any idea about longer term membership (ie 1 month or more) fees?

Nope !

Damn it!

Oh well, all things being equal, I guess the Hilton is probably the best bet. B350 an hour and nicer facilities and all. Where I was thinking of staying is about half way between the two venues.

dam_n it!

Just ring Outrigger and check ....

That's an idea.

Outrigger rates, straight from the horse's mouth:

1 hour 400 per hour

Weekly membership 1,500 baht

Monthly membership 4,000 baht

3 Month membership 8,000 baht

6 month membership 15,000 baht

4,000thb per month, so squash twice (or 2.5times) a week almost covers it ...

I suppose then u can use pool/deckchairs when u want !....

6 month might be worth it !...
