The squash season has burst back into action — and what a great start it’s been! The SAC squad is proudly sitting at the top of the 2nd Division Ile-de-France, boasting a perfect 3-for-3 winning streak. That’s right: undefeated, unstoppable, and yet, hungry for more !
But wait — there’s more excitement bouncing your way! On Saturday, 6 December, we’ll be welcoming none other than Jerome Rideau, last year’s King’s Cup champion, and his talented son Titouan Rideau. These two are squash royalty — and rumour has it, they’ve been training nonstop since the announcement of this fixture. To celebrate Jerome’s well-deserved trophy, we’ll hold a ceremony and, of course, a friendly (but fierce) showdown: “The SAC vs. The Rideau Family!”
Every point will count, pride will be on the line, and laughter is guaranteed. So dust off your rackets, polish your goggles, and come and join us for a fun afternoon of squash, sweat, and spectacular serves on Saturday, 6 December.
See you on court — and may the bounce be ever in your favour! 🥇🎾
Four teams, made up of parents and children, took part in SAC's traditional Armistice Day football tournament on a perfect autumn morning on Tuesday, 11 November.
After a minute's silence following a short speech by Matthew Curtin, it was fellow sports-section head Laurent Brault who marshalled dads, daughters and sons into a mini-tournament of finely balanced teams, matching youth and experience.
Thanks to all who turned out for a memorable morning's sport.

The Golf Section’s 2025 Autumn Weekend took place between the 27th and the 29th of September in Granville, Normandy. Blessed with good weather, 18 participants enjoyed three days of golf and tourism in a beautiful part of Normandy, close to the Channel Islands and Mont Saint-Michel.
The Kiwi Cup (best net individual) was retained by the Jones family, this time with Ian in first prize with 41pts and Muriel in second. John Goodhardt won the Andrew Dean Trophy for best brut. The team competition on Monday was played in the Shamble format. It was won by the team of John Goodhardt, Corine Balleyguier and Jonathan Hibbs with a round of 63, followed by the team of John McCallum, Monica Greenwood and Naomi Moore also with a score of 63, but with a lesser back nine.
Thanks to all for your participation. Our next Golf Weekend will be in April 2026 at Belledune Golf Club in the Baie de Somme.
