Racquets, also known as “hardracquets” or “rackets,” is the fastest racquet game in the world. The Tennis & Racquet Club is one of only six facilities in the country with a racquets court. The racquets program at the T&R includes private and group lessons, in-house tournaments, and participation in national and international competitions. The Club hosted the U.S. Open in 2006, an event noted as much for its lively social activities as for the high level of play.
