Women's Professional Racquetball Organization

I'm not going to lie. I'm a huge fan.

I picked up the sport of Racquetball after the birth of my first kid about 11 years ago. It wasn't love at first site, because I was TERRIBLE my first several times on the court and I am ridiculously stubborn. However, it didn't take long for me to completely fall head over heals for this amazing sport.

Over the years, I've had the opportunity to meet several of the best women in the world who play this sport. What has impressed me time and time again is how down to earth these girls are and how much they want to reach out to local girls at every level.

I had the opportunity the last few years ago to actually HOST WPRO Tournaments in my hometown of Olympia, WA. The show these girls put on is INCREDIBLE. If you ever have a chance to watch them play live........it better be on your bucket list. :)

Here is just a quick look at just few of the girls......

Paola Longoria, Mexico, current #1 ranked player on the WPRO Tour.
Rhonda Rajsich, Arizona, current World Champion and #2 ranked WPRO Player.

Damonique Davis, Texas, current #11 on the Tour.
Jessica Parilla, Mexico, current #27 on the Tour.
Samantha Salas, Mexico, current #4 on the Tour.
Jennifer Saunders, Canada, current #9 on the Pro Tour.

Everything you would ever want to know about the WPRO can be found on the WPRO website.

You can also follow the Tour on the WPRO BLOG.
