As part of the website revamp and in effort to make sustainable practices, I have switched the calendar on this site to use an imbedded instance of the calendar of w e b s i t e@r a c q u e t b a l l o n t a r i o . c a. If you previously linked your own schedule calendar to the old calendar, you can switch to this one. Similarly if you linked the old one one a website, you really should switch to this one.

We lost a great guy and racquetball player this past week. Laurino 'Larry' Sturino passed away September 7. Larry played regularly on Wednesdays and Sundays at National in Oakville up until last year. Larry was a great guy on and off the court, and would join us for a beer at Monaghan's on many Wednesday evenings after a few games. Larry always spoke with real pride and love for his wife Barbara, their daughters Lisa and Sarah and four grandchildren. John U taped this pic and this notice up on court 3.
