Jackie Robinson

I have been a member of the Boat Club for nearly 40 years and throughout that time have much enjoyed both the excellent facilities and the friendly environment.

In the early years I played in the squash team but throughout I have continued to represent the Club at various age groups in Tennis. I captained the team that won medals at the European Inter Club Championships at 0ver 50/55/60/ 65 age groups, including Gold in 2012 and 2013 in the 060. I have also been fortunate enough to represent GB at the Seniors World Team Championships on several occasions.

I have also been heavily involved in the administration of British Sport, first shortly after leaving University, as Assistant Secretary of the British Universities Sports Federation before joining the Sports Council. Chairman of the Womens Squash Rackets Association, which led in time to Chairing the amalgamated body re named England Squash and subsequently elected President. I have also served as a Vice President on the European Squash Federation and currently Chair the World Squash Federation Junior Commission. I am an elected Councillor of the Seniors Tennis GB Council .
