We have collaborated with Family First Magazine ( ​familyfirst.co.uk// ) on a piece all about Racketball and the benefits of the great sport!

Lovely to get some different channels of exposure out there and we hope it gets lots of different people interested in the game.

Exeter and Ipswich Karakal UK Racketball Series Super Saturday!

We had the second of our three big double header Saturdays on the 6th of September, with UK Racketball events running at both the Devon and Exeter Squash Club and Ipswich Sports Club. Handily covering both East & West of the country!

With around 120 players competing across the usual categories, it was a really positive weekend for the sport, showcasing the demand and interest in events across the UK. Especially since Ipswich is a brand-new venue for the Series, so to see it run so well with lots of new local players in it is really exciting.

Ipswich:

A massive thank you to Alec Livingstone and the Ipswich members and staff for running the event so well and making the UK Racketball travelling players feel so welcome. We hope to be back there next year! Here are the Champions from the categories, full results can be found on Sporty HQ via the below link:

Exeter:

As always, it was another busy day down at the Devon and Exeter club, with local counties Devon and Cornwall in particular having a wealth of players attending. The Devon and Exeter Club is a long time partner of the UK Racketball Series, and it is always a fun venue to host at. Big thank you to Adam Lings and his staff for a great day, and also local brewery Hanlons for providing some locally brewed beers and ales as prizes for the winners!
