3rd Annual Women and Racquetball Day (WaR) Across America is to be held during the month of February at clubs all across the nation.
This year in an effort to increase participation in the Annual Women and Racquetball (WaR) Day Across America the Ektelon Women’s Committee has voted to expand the ’day’ to any weekend in February 2011. This will also coincide with the designation of February as Racquetball Month by the USAR. We encourage you to start planning now to make the 2011 event bigger and better.
If you have comments and/or questions please contact Terry Rogers at rogersta@comcast.net.
