The next Little Musicians/Petits Musiciens session will be on Sunday, 14 December, from 11 am to 12:30 pm, with Breakfast from 11 am to 2 pm.
Sign up using this HelloAsso link. Don't forget that if a child is signed up for Breakfast/Brunch together with a parent, they have free access to the 1.5-hour class. If you don’t want to sign up for breakfast/brunch, it is €25 per child for the class. It is easier and cheaper if you reserve your place before Friday evening. Prices are more expensive at the bar on the day, and you risk the class being full.
Time to break out the Christmas crafts for you and your children! On Sunday, 14 December, between the Little Musicians/Brunch and the Carols, you can make all sorts of Christmassy things from table decorations and Christmas tree ornaments to simple bookmarks. We are looking forward to seeing lots of holiday crafters! We provide the raw materials

This past weekend, we held our Squash Challenge at the SAC, and we were delighted to see a strong turnout from our Squash Members, spreading both team spirit and early holiday cheer. Although the SAC narrowly fell to Montigny’s first squash team, the match was as close as a Christmas countdown—175 points to 146.
We were fortunate to have our young rising stars, Lucas and Sebastian, light up the scoreboard like a pair of festive ornaments. Montigny’s visit also gave us the chance to congratulate their player, Jérôme Rideau, last year’s King’s Cup winner and a certified “arbitre fédéral” for the French league. Jérôme kindly reminded us of the importance of keeping our courts in top condition for safe and enjoyable play. With that in mind, we’ve requested quotes from contractors to assess the squash courts, in coordination with the ongoing roofing work.
We look forward to seeing you back on court soon!
Wishing you a very Merry Christmas from the Squash Section! 🎄🥇🎾
Keep the Club's traditions alive and enjoy a nice (hot) cup of tea with biscuits from the UK from 4 pm to 5.30 pm at the Club at weekends!
