Terms

We want as many people as possible to be able to use this website. This statement explains how accessible it is, what to do if you have trouble, and how to report a problem.

Who this statement covers

This statement applies to this website, run by The Hull & District Squash Association Limited (company number 04064708).

How accessible this website is

We aim to meet the Web Content Accessibility Guidelines version 2.2 to level AA. We believe most of the site meets that standard, and we have designed it so that you should be able to:

change colours, contrast levels and fonts using your browser or operating system;
zoom in to 200% without text spilling off the screen;
move through the site using a keyboard alone;
use it with a screen reader, including the fixtures, results and league tables.

Tables of results and standings carry proper row and column headings so that a screen reader can announce which team and which figure it is reading.

Where we know it falls short

We know about the following, and have listed them honestly rather than leaving them to be discovered:

Maps. Club pages can show an embedded map, which is supplied by another organisation and is difficult to use with a screen reader. Every club that has a map also has its address written out as text, and a link that opens the location in your own maps application.
Older documents. Some forms and historic documents are PDFs or Word files that predate this site and are not fully accessible. If you need the information in one of them in another format, ask us and we will provide it.
Older news and history pages. Material carried over from the previous website may contain images without useful descriptions, and headings that do not follow a strict order.

Content that is out of scope

Where this site links to another organisation’s website, that site’s accessibility is a matter for whoever runs it. We do not control those pages.

If you cannot use part of this site

If you need information from this website in a different format — large print, plain text, an accessible document, or simply read out to you — email humbersquash@googlemail.com and tell us what you need and how to send it to you. We will do our best to help.

Reporting a problem

If you find a problem that is not listed above, or you think we are not meeting this standard, please tell us at humbersquash@googlemail.com. Describing the page and what went wrong helps us fix it faster. We take reports seriously and will reply.

How we tested this site

We want everyone to be able to use this site, and we do what we can to make that true. Where we fall short we would rather know: tell us and we will fix it.

We test the site ourselves rather than commissioning an external audit. Our most recent check, in September 2026, covered colour contrast across every combination the design uses, alternative text on images, the labelling of form controls, and the words used on links and buttons. Contrast passed everywhere. The check found no missing alternative text, and no unlabelled links or buttons. It did find form fields in the administrator area, which members do not use, that needed proper labels; those have been fixed.

What we have not done. The site has not been audited by an external specialist, and we have not yet completed testing with a screen reader across every page. We say so rather than claim a standard we have not verified.

What we are doing about it

We fix accessibility problems as we find them and as they are reported, and we check new pages against this standard before they go live. Where a fix depends on somebody else — the maps provider, for instance — we look for an alternative rather than leave the page unusable.

This statement was prepared in September 2026, and is reviewed whenever the site changes materially.
