Racketball is the UK’s fastest growing racket sport and is a game for all ages and abilities played on a squash court. It is easy to learn and a great way to keep fit. Ilkley Lawn Tennis & Squash Club has 5 squash courts, including 3 glass back ones. It has a growing friendly Racketball section that is looking for new members. Currently the club has a Special Introductory 3 month offer available to nonmembers.
Previous newcomers to the sport at Ilkley have commented: ‘I’ve really enjoyed playing as it is energetic, competitive and you feel great afterwards’. Others remarked on ‘how easy it is to learn as ‘the rules are simple and after only 10 minutes instruction I could hit the ball and play a game’
Please ring the reception at Ilkley on 01943 607182 to book places – remember non members, family and friends are welcome.
