Racketball is becoming increasingly popular across the country as an alternative to the rigours of Squash, with particular encouragement in Middlesex, where there are ambassadors for the game at MSRA level.

Even for keen Squash players it is a good way to keep fit with interminable rallies owing to the nature of the ball.

Oakleigh Park runs a four division block league with around twenty people playing on a regular basis and there is an annual Racketball tournament.

NEWS IN BRIEF

Moves are being considered to start a regular weekly racketball morning or lunchtime session, perhaps on a Friday.

If any Racketball players would like to register their interest, or suggest other times, please contact Trevor Sargent on 020 8449 1550.
