Each year Sportsclub in cooperation with Ladies' Pro Racquetball Tour and the South Carolina Racquetball Players Association, hosts an international racquetball tournament featuring the top 12 ladies’ racquetball players in the world and over 160 professionals and amateurs. The last tournament took place January 25-27, 2019.
Each year the tournament raises money for organizations or projects in our community. Past beneficiaries include a large donation to battle ovarian cancer and providing over 40 AEDs to local police departments throughout South Carolina. The organization the tournament will work to support in 2019 is SWITCH. SWITCH promotes local awareness of human trafficking and provides intervention and restoration services. The LPRT, SCRPA, and Sportsclub are excited for the opportunity to help this very worthwhile organization.
Thanks to everyone who made the 2019 Sweet Caroline Open a great success.!
