1. Who can join the BSRA?
Everyone is welcome — from beginners to seasoned players! We match participants by skill level to ensure fair and fun competition.
2. Do I need to belong to a private club to play in the BSRA leagues and tournaments?
No. You do not need to be a member of the Buffalo Club, Saturn Club, or T&S to play in BSRA leagues and tournaments.
3. How do I stay informed about updates and events?
Once you register, you’ll be added to the BSRA distribution list and receive regular updates via email. This year, we are also going to have a new BSRA event calendar that will streamline event registration and be a source for all BSRA and national tournaments and events.
4. Where are matches held?
Most BSRA matches are played at: Buffalo Club, Saturn Club, T&S, and Nardin Athletic Center (NAAC)

5. How do I sign up for winter leagues or tournaments?
For leagues, contact your Club Pro by mid October to be placed in the winter singles or doubles league. For tournaments, look for registration links on the BSRA website or in email updates. Questions? Reach out directly to the BSRA team.
6. How is the league structured?
The singles league is divided into A/B, C, and D divisions with commissioners overseeing each group. Matches are scheduled weekly from November through February (holiday weeks skipped), and players are expected to complete them on time.
7. How are match results tracked?
All results are recorded in ClubLocker, the national platform run by US Squash. ClubLocker keeps player records, rankings, and schedules in one place.
8. What are the BSRA fees?
Annual dues are $150 per year, which goes primarily to US Squash membership fees and the BSRA receives a small percentage of these dues. To participate in ranked tournaments and league play, you must hold an active US Squash membership. Additionally, starting in 2026, the BSRA has added an additional fee of $7 that goes directly to all of the local tournaments and events we hold each year. To learn more about this, read here.
9. What are my dues used for?
Your dues cover the administrative and operational costs of running tournaments, awards, events, and leagues. Importantly, all BSRA organizers are volunteers — every dollar goes directly back into keeping Buffalo squash vibrant and growing.
10. My child is interested in squash, but their school doesn’t offer a program. Can they play through BSRA?
Yes! BSRA has a thriving junior program. We can connect parents with junior coaches at local clubs and help find opportunities for clinics, lessons, and court time.
