Doubles-Women's
Mixed Doubles

Divisions will be divided by age and/or skill level where appropriate.  You may register for a maximum of 2 Doubles and 1 Singles event.

(Note: Open divisions typically attract the most accomplished players with the most tournament experience; divisions then become easier as one moves through the alphabet; thus Men's C division is for new and mostly inexperienced, male tournament players in college or older. A division winner from a previous year generally must move to the next division.)

Coordinator reserves the right to combine or cancel any event.  Coordinator also reserves the right to assign players to an appropriate division.

Level: Determined by years played and previous tournament success, or by your USA Racquetball Division. Contact the coordinator for opening day play schedule after June 7, 2010 or check online to view the schedule.  Doubles teams will compete in the division corresponding to the highest ranked player in the team; therefore, a team made up of a C player and an A player will play in the A division.

Format: Pool or medal qualifying play (round robin format) – Wednesday, Thursday & Friday. Medal play (best 2 of 3 game match, single elimination) – Thursday, Friday & Saturday
