5th November - Chichester

Chichester Racketball Open introduction

Picture
2022 will be the eleventh time that Chichester Racquets and Fitness Club have hosted a HEAD UK-Racketball Series event making it the second oldest venue on the UK-Racketball tour. This is one of the most popular events of the UK-Racketball Series and with only 60 places available do not delay in securing your entry as soon as possible, as our last four trips to Chichester have all sold out. 
​
Chichester Racquets and Fitness Club has a strong Racketball tradition with internal leagues and Club Championships continuing throughout the year. The club facilities are some of the best in the UK with a great bar and balcony, the perfect place to host a UK-Racketball event with a great friendly atmosphere to spend the day. 

​The last South of England Racketball Open took place in 2021 and was a sell out with the largest draw of the day being the Over 50's with 16 players. It was Chris Wase who managed to take the final with a 2-0 victory over Chris Morris. Special mention must be made of Doug Kane and Andy Ruff - the pair played a marathon match with Andy sneaking it 21/19 in the third. No player in the history of the event has ever won 3 titles in the row, with Tom Phipps, Ted Jeal, and Chris O'Neill all coming close in past years - can Luke Bishop make it a hat-trick of wins in 2022?

A Grade – County, national or good club player 
B Grade – Regular club player 
Women’s – All ages and abilities, these events have a great range of players which makes for a fun and competitive day.

club facilities 

The Chichester club boasts five courts including a championship glass back and arguably the best facilities out of any club in the Series. 

The club has a modern and spacious dining and catering area and food is served throughout the day.  The heath suite consisting of a spa pool, sauna and steam room has made the venue one of the most popular on the Series and is perfect for post-match relaxation. The health suite is available to all competitors throughout the tournament and there is a comfortable lounge area to relax in. 

The bar is situated close to but just tucked away from the courts making it the perfect place to chill out away from the racketball. The club patio area is rated as the best sun trap in the city and if we’re lucky enough with the October weather, refreshments can be enjoyed in the sun!

club location

Chichester is one of the prettiest cities in the UK and the Club itself is set only a stone’s throw away from the charming city centre with idyllic views over Oaklands Park and the Chichester Festival Theatre.

what happened last year . . . South of England Racketball Open 2021 - Report and rEsults

Picture
The South of England Racketball Open at Chichester Squash Club is always one of the most popular events on the calendar, and this year was no exception. 

This year Chichester hosted 60 competitors over 7 grades, along with 8 doubles pairings, and a full day of racketball starting at 9am and going on into the evening. 

Fresh from his strong British Open semi-final against Nick Matthew, UK Racketball Series stalwart Luke Bishop headed up a competitive A Grade down on the south coast. Along with Michael Robinson, currently 7th in the UK Racketball standings, the top ranked pair dispatched their opponents to set up what was effectively a final in the round robin group. After some highly entertaining racketball from both, series leader Luke Bishop eventually came out on top, winning 11/9 in the third to extend his lead at the top of the rankings. 

The B Grade saw 14 players competing, with tight matches in every single one of the groups. Group A was topped by Graeme Manson, who took on Group B winner Donovan Eastes in the first semi-final, the latter winning in 2 games. Group C was won by Jodey Watts, who played Chris Burton in the second semi-final. A closer affair, Jodey eventually won 2/1, to set up a final with Donovan. Some more high-level racketball in the final saw Donovan emerge as the winner, 2/0, to take home the trophy for the B Grade.

​
The largest grade of the day was the Over 50s, which saw 16 players enter the draw. Special mention has to be made of Doug Kane and Andy Ruff, who played a marathon match in which Andy won 21/19 in the third. Semi-final one saw Chris Morris record a 2/1 win over Jonathan Edwards, while the second was won by Chris Wase, beating Michael Wardle 2/0. Chris Wase would go on to win the final, beating Chris Morris 2/0 for the trophy. 

In the Women's Grade Kelly Eastment, Tanya Ruff, and Clare Young competed for the honours with some great racketball all round. With Kelly and Clare winning their first matches, the pair set up a winner-takes-all final, which Kelly took 3 games to 2 for the win over her fiancé. 
​

In other grades, Mike Phillips won the Over 60s, beating Graham Appleby 2/0 in the final; Steve Smith won the Over 40s with a 2/0 win over Roger Camp; and the doubles saw Luke Bishop and Amber Marshall beat Roger Camp and Nick Jenkins in the final.

Our thanks once again to Chichester for providing such a fantastic venue for the tournaments, and of course our series sponsors who allow us to stage these events. 

We’ll see you all in Nottingham in December, for the UK Racketball 2021 Series Finals!
