Bellingham Athletic Club was host to the 10th Annual Racquets Without Borders Junior Tournament on Saturday, Oct 27. This is a two part competition with Team British Columbia vying with Team Washington for individual awards as well as the perpetual team trophy. Washington currently holds the trophy from last year’s win – you can see it on the wall behind our racquetball courts. At the end of the day, Team Washington was leading with a slim margin of 36 points to 34 points. The Washington players will travel to Burnaby, B.C. for Part II of the competition on Saturday, December 8. We invite all Junior BAC players to join us there to keep the trophy on our wall! You can play even if you did not play on October 27, and there is scholarship help to pay for all or part of the entry fee. Join everyone for some great racquetball, a T shirt and a pasta lunch in Burnaby! Here’s how Washington players fared:
