racquetball in Oklahoma (Oklahoma City, Norman: work, health, home)

[oldnreckless]

Where are the racquetball players?

I recently retired and moved back to my hometown in Oklahoma..
A good health club and racquetball are about top priority.

Right now I'm in South Central Oklahoma.
They have courts but no player.

I'm willing to move to another town.

Any ideas anyone.

Hiya oldnreckless! , I played a bit of R-Ball about a million years ago...gave it up for kids and Grand-kids.

Are there no players at the Simmons Center?? That seems to be the biggest locale for Sporty things and I believe the "Senior Games" are coming up this next weekend (Sept. 27) ... don't know if they have racquetball but it might be a good place to find others with similar interests!

Here are the yellow pages in okc...i know that most YMCAs offer it too. The downtown YMCA is really nice.

Boy, if you want to lose weight, just play racketball. I tried when I was way younger, and the game wore me out.

I would like to play for fun anywhere in the okc, metro, yukon, norman area.
I'm not great. I'm 45 so I've slowed down a bit. Saturday mornings or sunday afternoons, weekdays after 5:00.

Racqetball WILL get you in shape, and it's not as hard on your knees as tennis. It's a good sport and fun.

Must be right about the knees. Mine have held up okay (knock on wood).
DominicR, I have to be in OKC on April 25.
I might stay over with an old friend.
I remember about 35 years ago playing on some courts in Norman not far from the highway. Is it still there?
I retired from work in 2006, but that just means I need the exercise even more.
I don't care what level of player you are. If you're better, you can give me some tips. If I'm better, I'll give you some tips. Love to talk abut racquetball almost as much as playing it.
