| Post subject: Looking for a squash court |
Anyone know the squash court in the french concession area? I live on Wulumuqi Lu and looking for the court + trainer . Only one I know of is the Ambassy club which you need to be a member ($$$$$$$$) . Just want something that charge per hour & not too $$$$$ as I am just a poor student |

That's quite far out though. I'd like to have a court nearby so that I will not be too lazy to go But thanks anyway for your suggestion  |

Regal East Asia hotel's got a couple of courts, very close to you, played there a couple of years ago, not cheap either though, think it was about 80rmb for a session.
I think you're stuck in Shanghai, it's not a common sport over here, take up ping pong instead!! |

The Equatorial Internationl Hotel (on Yanan Lu, or is it the International Equatorial...) also has a squash court, I think it was approx. RMB 80 per hour. |

I am always looking for squash partners -- and court is free for me at the Portman (SH Center) with a guest so no cost issues. I am an intermediate, mostly just like getting in a good workout and meeting the very friendly squash community in SH. I can be reached at sharkfude@yahoo.com.
Regards,
Jim |

Bit pricey but, if you know someone who is a member you can sneak in at Ambassy Club on Huai Hai Lu.
Shanghai Stadium is on a metro line and really cheap...great fun. |
