Intramural Rules

Racquetball Ladder

American Racquetball Association will govern play

A team consists of four players. You may have a maximum of eight players on your roster, but only four players may play on one given night. Two players will play doubles and two will play singles. The teams will designate the singles players as #1 and #2 singles. Then they will play #1 singles versus #1 from the other team, and #2 versus #2. If you only have two players available, the doubles match will be forfeited. There are three points per night available to win; one point for each singles match and one point for the doubles match. Game times and dates cannot be changed due to the scheduling of the courts. A match will consist of the best two of three games to fifteen points. If a third game is needed, it will be played to eleven points. Games may be won by only one point. Teams will supply their own balls and racquets. These may be checked out at the Main Issue. Teams will referee their own games. Gentleman's rules apply. If a decision cannot be mutually agreed upon, play the point over as if the incident did not occur. No black-soled shoes are allowed on the courts. Eye guards are required for play.
