Civil Service Participation in Army Sport

By August 24, 2021 No Comments

Prior to the Major/Minor Unit Competition last year (subsequently cancelled) the question was asked if Civil Service members could be included in the Championships.  Army Squash are pleased to report a formal policy has now been written with the production of the ABN (see link below) – effective from 1 Sep 21.

Civil Service Participation

Note that the inclusion of civilians in unit level teams is allowed provided the individual is employed within Army TLB, however they cannot compete in Corps or Army Teams (or indeed for UKAF).

This should allow more units to field teams in the Minor/Major Unit Squash Championships (scheduled for 18-20 Jan 22).   The rules for this competition will be updated to reflect this inclusion, we may extend the championships in duration to accommodate (note: it may be capped to a certain number of Civil Servants per team as we should not be preventing Service Personnel playing by including a full team of Civil Servants).
