2020 Canadian Championships Update

Racquetball Canada’s Board of Directors, with the recommendation of the High Performance Committee, has decided that hosting a fall event to determine the 2020 Canadian Singles and Doubles Champions will NOT be possible.

For the first time in Racquetball Canada history no Canadian Champions will be crowned.

“This was a difficult decision emotionally from the stand point of wanting the National Team athletes to be able to come together, compete and see the results of all their hard work,” said Jennifer Saunders, Racquetball Canada’s High Performance & Sport Development Director. “However it really was a simple decision because of how much we value our athletes. Their health and safety comes first as well as that of our coaches, volunteers and administrators.”

 In looking to the future, Sanders noted,“Racquetball Canada’s High Performance Committee will soon begin making plans for the 2020-21 season and we know as a team and an organization will come out stronger on the other side of this unprecedented time in sport.”

We understand this was a very difficult decision for the Board of Directors to make and we thank them for their hard work and commitment to keeping all Racquetball athletes across the country safe in these unprecedented times.
