Hi All, I have always been a bit of a social rackets players, but last year, coinciding with my move to a new home by the sea, I discovered RACKETLON.
I have a table tennis club, a literal stone's throw away & a tennis club in the town park with 7 outdoor courts. I set up the local badminton club & am a member of the squash club in the next town, as we have no local squash courts, although I am working on that. I have recently completed my level 1 squash coaching & plan to do at least level 1 in each sport
I am just about to help my tennis club set up a proper junior section & achieve clubmark status. I am already running the junior squash for my squash club, help out at my table tennis club & hope to establish a flourishing junior section at my badminton club.
We have no sports hall in my town, other than the school sports hall, so we are working to better use that facility & at the same time establish a new facility with a strong rackets influence.
My town is Ilfracombe & if you want to know more about RACKETLON:
