| Good to know:
Since its first regional playing in 1985, this tournament has
developed into the most prestigious premier event for senior men and
women.
In 1989, the event had grown so large, and drawn such a
talented field, that it was recognized by the International
Racquetball Federation as a designated world championship.
The round-robin format
provides quantity; the competitors provide the quality. Tournament
staff and volunteers provide great hospitality; players and
spectators provide the premier competition and camaraderie.
Together with sponsors and contributors, the event supports the
Olympic Dream for racquetball, and has raised over $300,000 toward
that effort.
