Context: Analysis of ages and metallicities of star clusters in theMagellanic Clouds provide information for studies on the chemical evolution ofthe Clouds and other dwarf irregular galaxies. Aims: The aim is to derive agesand metallicities from integrated spectra of 14 star clusters in the SmallMagellanic Cloud, including a few intermediate/old age star clusters. Methods:Making use of a full-spectrum fitting technique, we compared the integratedspectra of the sample clusters to three different sets of single stellarpopulation models, using two fitting codes available in the literature.Results: We derive the ages and metallicities of 9 intermediate/old ageclusters, some of them previously unstudied, and 5 young clusters. Conclusions:We point out the interest of the newly identified as intermediate/old ageclusters HW1, NGC 152, Lindsay 3, Lindsay 11, and Lindsay 113. We also confirmthe old ages of NGC 361, NGC 419, Kron 3, and of the very well-known oldest SMCcluster, NGC 121.
