What timings does the referee have to enforce?

Question

Accepted Answer

The referee enforces all time rules, announcing "15 seconds", "Half-time" and "Time" (World Squash Singles Rules 3.6.7, 4 and 7). Players are responsible for being close enough to hear. Period Maximum Call Warm-up 4 minutes, sides changed after 2 "Half-time" at 2 minutes, "Time" at 4 End of warm-up to start of play 1 minute "15 seconds", then "Time" Between games 2 minutes "15 seconds", then "Time" Changing damaged equipment (including glasses, eyewear, a contact lens) 2 minutes A player who keeps the ball for an unreasonable time in the warm-up is warming up unfairly: apply Rule 14. Players can restart before time if both agree. A player slow to change equipment, or late back on court, can be penalised under Rule 14. You may award the match to a player whose opponent isn't on court ready to play within the time set in the competition rules.
