YOUTH COURT TIME
A minimum of three courts will always be available for youth players Monday-Friday from 4pm-8pm, and all day Saturdays and Sundays.
We will have youth lessons, leagues, tournaments, and camps. This will be the go-to place for youth racquetball.
YOUTH MEMBERSHIP IS Free
Youth under 18 years old get a FREE membership to Racquetball Revival. When a youth player wants to get on the court they must show homework has been completed, show progress is being made in completing long term assignments, and better than satisfactory grades are being achieved in school. If youth players need academic assistance they will be partnered with an adult member that has experience in education or the subject matter that youth player needs help with.
ADULT MEMBERSHIPs
Monthly adult membership fees will vary depending on the level of volunteer commitment. The more one is willing to volunteer the lower the monthly membership. Volunteer opportunities will include: tutoring, officiating youth matches, and giving career talks . Members will also be encouraged to make a monthly contribution to lower the monthly membership fee for families that can't afford membership.
