It's a very close-knit group. This is the third year we've played together. There was a hiatus for about four years because of budgetary cuts, and they cut racquetball out of the armed forces sports program. It's been strictly because of the support of the Army and Air Force sports program. Regardless of how fierce the competition is, it's always a combination of competition and camaraderie.
Racquetball is more than a high-speed competition.
Common denominators are a desire to compete and a love for the sport, Gillhouse said. Racquetball is truly a lifetime sport. You can play this game from the beginner level to the expert level. If you look around, you'll see every height, every shape, every personality in the world, Davis said. The key to this game is conditioning and mental toughness.
