Having problems with Club Locker?
If you are having trouble navigating Club Locker and finding tournaments etc, then you are probably navigating club locker as a guest.  Before looking for a tournament or doing anything on Club Locker you need to login.  You can do this by navigating to your profile either through the Squash NS Webpage and clicking on the My Account (see below) tab to go to the SNS Login Page or go to the login page directly.  If you don’t login,  Club Locker won’t know who you are, what your memberships and affiliations are and finding and registering for tournaments is difficult.
