Rackets : The Major tournaments

The Rackets Calendar traditionally runs from September until April with major tournaments in the UK being, amongst others, the 'British Open Singles', the 'Invitation Singles', the 'British Amateur' and the 'British Open Doubles'. The majority of major Rackets events are played at The Queens Club in London, with more minor and qualifying tournaments played at numerous venues around the U.K.

In North America major events include the 'U.S Amateur', the 'Canadian Amateur' at the Montreal Racquet Club and the 'U.S Open', which changes venue every year.

Rackets is well known amongst participants as an extremely social sport. As a game with a high degree of difficulty, many competitors are resigned to achieving limited success in tournaments, and thus set their sights on success at the bar.
