Five do the Vitality Big Half Marathon - Team Blackheath Squash

Support Jonny and Team Blackheath Squash!
The Vitality Big Half Marathon is taking place on 1st March 2020 and for the first time Blackheath Squash Club
has five runners taking part, club member Johnny Owens and four of his friends. They are running to raise funds for the Club's redevelopment
to build two more courts which will enable the Club to play a key community role
for increasing participation in the sport as well as expanding squash and racketball to under-represented and disadvantaged groups.
Johnny, Bene, Deano, Lewis and Tom will be running the Vitality Big Half. "Although we've all done at least one of these before, it's going to be a big challenge as life commitments have certainly challenged our various fitness levels. However, it's for a worthwhile cause, and we'll do our best!".
They are raising money for Johnny's squash club, Blackheath squash club. A long standing, well established club, with a really nice community feel, the club are raising funds to build two more courts, with a primary aim of the extra space being to play a key community role for increasing female participation in the sport as well as expanding squash and racketball to disadvantaged groups. Johnny plays regularly and considers squash a key aid in maintaining positive mental health.
Please donate what you can towards this worthwhile project. Johnny promises to play squash with you if you do :-)
