We have some great companies who love racquetball and are showing their support by sponsoring the tournament. Which means... the Men's and Women's Open Singles Divisions have money to win.

Thank you Durham region for hosting a Singles division only tournament...
They had 5 women show up (thank you ladies for participating)..and a huge junior showing, wow I think there was 25 juniors, please correct me if I'm wrong...
Tanner Mattson was the winner of the competitive open division, and what a show the open players gave us. I just love watching the open matches, Matt and Christian diving across the court, the "cannon" that Swaine and Wiseman have for an arm, and the sheer agility and sharp shooting of Massey and Bill...Awesome performance guys.
