Racquetball and Squash

Tournaments

Franklin hosts the Club Championship Tournament in racquetball (singles and doubles) and in squash (singles and doubles) annually. Winners of each division are posted on plaques displayed in the club. Trophies are awarded for first and second place in each division.

For Kids

There has been a renewed interest in having kids participate in racquetball and squash classes. Greg Lewerenz, our Professional, will organize activities in racquetball and/or squash for kids throughout the school year. Children, ages 8 and up, are eligible to participate. Greg will meet with interested participants after school or during the summer.

Racquetball and Squash Court Reservations
