Joining the Club
The club is open to all Stanford affiliates (students, faculty, and staff) who want to play racquetball. Besides the fun and exercise from club practices, all club members—beginners and advanced alike—are encouraged to participate in scrimmages with local schools (Berkeley, San Jose State, and UC Santa Cruz), where you will play your counterparts from those schools.
For the 2006/2007 year, the club will be playing at the Pagemill YMCA. The YMCA offers a special discounted rate to students of $5/visit, so be sure to bring your student ID! The Athletic Department will have a new facility opening in fall of 2007 with new racquetball courts.

Skill Levels
The club includes players from complete beginners to state High School champions. While you will have the most competitive play with the other players close to your ability, playing and watching more experienced players will stretch your abilities and help you learn, while playing newer players will relax the pressure and allow you to focus on your game to improve accuracy and consistency.
