About the Author​

The author is a former National Masters Racquetball Association (NMRA) Board member, a national level racquetball player and gold medalist, a member of the Wilson WTeam for racquetball, retired Naval Officer – former member of Navy Sports racquetball team, and an active Racket Warrior, playing multiple racket and paddle sports competitively. The idea and research for this book began over ten years ago when the author was unable to find any book that mentioned or described more than the handful of most popular racket and paddle sports and realized that there were many more being played around the world but never fully documented nor publicized. His interest and quest for knowledge has led to the comprehensive research and compilation of information about each new racquet sport he could uncover with a dedication toward accuracy and thoroughness resulting in this guidebook.
