    If you have an issues with them, please let me know as soon as possible. If not, please can you start booking courts. 
     
    I've broadly copied the rules from the Warwickshire racketball league that I've played in
     
    Rules
    - Teams of four
    - Best of five games, Point a rally to 11, two clear 
    - Black racketball to be used
    - Official racketball rules to be followed
    - No compulsory food afterwards
    - Matches to start at the usual time for that club's squash team matches
    - Matches to be on Thursday nights throughout August and early September.
     
     
    I'm keen for this to not be taken 'too' seriously, although none of us like losing..
     
    Any questions on any of this, please let me know!
     
    Best of luck
