Squash losing out to Jiu Jitsu in Austin

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Sat, 07 Nov 2009 20:37:59 GMT

This week we were bumped off our squash court during prime time so that 4 or 5 people could practice Jiu Jitsu. Yes, one of only two squash courts has been reserved for jiu jitsu from 6:45 - 8:30pm during prime time every Tuesday evening now. How can this be? Jiu Jistsu can take place anywhere there is floor space but not squash. We were told by the Activities Manager that the courts were not booked so it was given to Jiu Jitsu. But that is not at all true. On top of that, the activity manager had no idea that every evening there are anywhere from 5 to 10 and sometimes more squash players playing an open challenge format during prime time. Club Management did nothing to investigate the use of the courts. even after several of the squash pplayers voiced their concerns to the activity manager, nothing was done to compromise the situation. In fact, there is now a notice posted on the courts to advise that Jiu Jitsu will take over the court every Tuesday going forward.

Squash has grown in popularity in the Austin region ever since Lifetime opened 2 facilities in the area. Taking courts away during prime time will not only cause member concerns about continued membership in a facility with this type of management but will also impact the growth of the number one fitness sport (per Forbes magazine) in the austin area. What can be done - it's simple. Voice your opinion to Lifetime Management. Let's get our court back for the sport it was designed for.

How do you keep track of active players

subs@fazalabbas.com — Wed, 04 Nov 2009 20:23:31 GMT

Here in Parker/Colorado, people started returning to Squash courts but even now, its not easy to find the players. There are very few regular players. We here did not find a better way to communicate with eachother in a way that who is available or who is busy or who will be available? Unless you dont poke directly, no one comes forward. But everyone wants to play if you call them

Do you have any email list outside LTF like yahoogroups or google or ... ?

Do you use Google calendar?

Do you use personal contact list?

Do you use some feature of LTF that I/we dont know of?

How your group is keeping track of active players? Or non-active players to motivate them to come back.

Thanks

People dont listen. Any suggestion about spam?

subs@fazalabbas.com — Tue, 13 Oct 2009 16:33:15 GMT

I want to receive emails from this thread but its annoying people asking to play from OH or VA or any other place where this email list is global.This place "Life Time Fitness > Squash" is global.

What do you recommend what I/we should do to stop receiving this spam?

Thanks

How about a 2nd Squash Court in Troy and Rochester MI. ?

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Wed, 28 Oct 2009 18:13:06 GMT

Hi, nothing like not getting in the squash court when its all booked up and seeing one sometimes 2 raquetball courts empty. Since these clubs are promoting squash and more and more players have to jostle for court time with leagues and challenges please consider a 2nd squash court like Commerce City, MI. If they can do it, Troy and Rochester can, and we would be so so so so so happy. We have 3 R-ball and 1 squash court at these gyms.

The booking system works pretty good but with all these players it's very frustrating to know the courts are being booked sometimes and then no one shows up or cancels. Lifetime should check who is booking and not showing up and have no shows be accountable.

Anyways, thanks to Lifetime for including this awesome sport

Squash at Burr Ridge, Illinois

webmaster@lifetimefitness.com — Thu, 30 Jul 2009 17:32:37 GMT

I'm having a very difficult time with the squash page. I work out at LifeTime in Burr Ridge, Illinois. I would love to take squash lessons. There is a page that explains the various levels of instruction available but it gives no specifics on times or dates or clubs that offer this. There is also a link for "registration", however, when you click on that you DON'T get the registration form you merely get sent to another random LifeTime page unrelated to squash.

Can anyone tell me if there is squash instruction available at LifeTime in Burr Ridge, Illinois?

I like the new squash page but sometimes conversing with people nationwide doesn't help when you want a specific answer regarding a specific club, as I do.
