Racquetball Challenge Court

Courts #2 & #3 are reserved for challenge court every Monday & Wednesday from 4pm - Close.

Play is open to all players and is based on the court you sign up on. Expect a social group that turns a lot of nights into doubles play to maximize everyone's court times.

L.A.C. Racquetball Leagues

Racquetball leagues are run ongoing here at the club with no fees to participants. Throughout the year there are four leagues: two in the Winter and two in Summer/Spring.

Leagues are arranged by skill level from Beginner to Open/A. Sign-ups are open and new players will be added each time a new league begins. All leagues are set up as Flex Leagues where matches are played on competitors' own schedules.
