| Good to know:
Started 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.
