Jim Elliott and myself returned from the National Masters Racquetball International Championship at Champaign, IL. We had a blast.  Meet some new friends and had some great games of racquetball. For those over 45, I would encourage you to attend one of these events. You play round robin format(one game to 21) and have an opportunity to play some of the best players in your age group.
Congratulations to Jim Elliott. He placed 5th in 50+ age group and 3rd in 50+ doubles. Jim’s doubles partner was Mike Cannon from Indianapolis, IN.
Hwy 100 Club Minneapolis, Mn will host the July 23-26, 2003 tournament. Mark you calendar and plan to attend. Visit the NMRA website for more information.
