Devon & Exeter Secure National Racketball Title
The Devon and Exeter Squash and
Racketball Club has won the Racketball National Club title at
their first attempt by beating Cleaver Squash Club at the Park Squash
Club in Nottingham last weekend.
The club was crowned National Champions
after some superb wins in previous rounds against defending champions
Thame, Chichester and Bishops Stortford before
overcoming the Nuneaton based side.
In just 18 months since being introduced to the club, the meteoric rise of
racketball has given the club an expanding internal league structure that
has now led to the National Clubs title.
The side, which was sponsored by local
company Island Sports is now looking forward to defending their title and
maybe even venturing into the Europe as the English representatives this
summer.
Club owner Adam Lings was overjoyed
and commented “The boys have done brilliantly and they can all be very proud
of their achievement”.
Racketball is the UKs fastest growing racket sport and anyone interested in
playing the game should contact their England Squash & Racketball
Regional Office.
