Hudson Scott Lagerquist Matt Musil Matt Poellet Philip Wiley Women's Only   12 Players Rules of the Game  edited: May 5, 2016  1.1 The Game Mornings and Evenings are Singles Racquetball Leagues, and the Noon League plays Cut-throat. Matches (3 games to 15, win by 1) are played in a 20x40 foot court. - Singles strategy: Opponents alternate racquet swings, striking a racquetball against the front wall until one of the players fails to return the ball. Players rotate serving after the server looses the rally. - Cut-throat: Same strategy as singles except the server plays against the other two opponents. 1.2 Objective The objective is to win each rally by serving or returning the ball so the opponent is unable to keep the ball in play. A rally is over when a player is unable to hit the ball before it touches the floor twice, is unable to return the ball in such a manner that it touches the front wall before it touches the floor, or when a hinder is called {A "hinder" is an unintentional interference from the player making a return, that impedes the ability of the receiving player to make a return. This results in a replay.}. 1.3 Scoring Points are scored only by the player serving. A point is scored when the server serves an unreturnable legal serve, or wins the rally. If the server loses the rally, no points are scored and the other player now becomes the server (known as a "side out"). A legal serve: The server must take a position completely within the serving box, bounce the ball on the floor, and strike the ball before the ball contacts the floor a second time. The server?s feet must remain in the box until the ball has crossed the back service line (note that it is permissible for the server?s foot to cross the front service line during the serve, so long as the foot is still in contact with the line). The served ball must then contact the front wall first, then travel beyond the back service line before bouncing on the floor. Note that if the ball contacts anything other than the front wall immediately after being struck by the racquet, the server loses the serve. Optionally, the ball my contact either sidewall after contacting the front wall, but never more than one wall before it bounces beyond the back service line. The server gets two chances to make a legal serve. If the player fails to make a legal serve, no points are scored and the serve exchanges to the other player. The receiving player must strike the ball before it bounces a second time on the floor, and return the ball to the front wall before it contacts the floor (otherwise, a point is scored to the opponent). At this point in the rally, the opponent now becomes the receiver, and play continues until a either player cannot make a legal return. NOTE: The safety box is the region defined by the back service line and the dashed line. The receiver or racquet may NOT enter the box until a served ball either bounces or passes the dashed line (plane). The server may not enter the box until the ball has cleared the back service line (plane). 1.4 Match, Game A match consists of 3 complete games to 15. The first player to reach 15 is declared the winner and the game is over. If time expires before the last game has completed, the player with the most points is declared the winner.

N E W S Winter 2026 Registration CLOSED 12 week session by: Joe Glogovsky posted: Tuesday, January 6, 2026 The Winter 2026 racquetball league registration is now closed. The next (summer) session will begin in May, with registration in April. NOTE THAT ONLY REC CENTER MEMBERS will be able to register for the leagues! Please enter your email (click "NEXT SEASON" link in the left column) to receive a reminder notice for the next league registration. Several leagues will be offered: - a separate singles league for each night of the week. - a noon cut-throat league (3 players on the court) - a morning singles league - a Women's league Note that the noon league is a cutthroat league (3 players on the court) and all other leagues are singles, with one division in each league. Structure of each league will depend on the total number of entrants, and a mini tournament will be held the last 2 weeks of the session as well. League standings will be determined by points scored, games won, and bonus points for playing your match as scheduled. My goal is to post the standings weekly.
