Are you still looking for a racquetball partner? If yes, I would love to play.
I have been playing for a few years and consider myself as an intermediate player. I'm a newbie here. Is there a racquetball club or league in Shanghai?
From what I read, it sounds like Shanghai Center is pretty pricey. Are there
other choices in the city?

Hi,

I'm a keen player in UK, although not so much in Shanghai. I don't play in a league, but have access to a court closeby to my apartment in Pudong if you fancy a game?

I am a Racquetball player and play at Tournament B level in Canada.
I would love to find some Racquetball games during my stay in Shanghai.
Please call me at 13761304190 as soon as possible.

Thank you.

Chris

P.S. I normally come to Shanghai once a year and stay for about
two months. This year, I am staying here between 10/23 and 12/17, 2008. You may also contact me at Ask.Dr.Chris@gmail.com

I haven't found a court in Shanghai other than the Shanghai Center, which for me is too inconvenient to play regularly (distance, membership, player pool). If you can schmooz them over to allow walk-ons, I'll play once or twice a week. -pete

The only racquetball court I found in Shanghai, was in The Ritz Carlton Portman Hotel. Is the court you are talking about different from this one?

Hey Chuck.....2 month to 2 year old posts .
Guessing the people who wrote them are not going to respond.

And I am guessing after about 4 posts, most of us now realize that the Portmann has an official court!

Am playing a couple folks at the racquetball court at the Shanghai Centre / Portman Ritz Carlton on a weekly basis. Would enjoy expanding the group. The health club manager has agreed to allow walk-ons at CNY1000 for ten 1-visit passes, and this has been working fine now for several months for my partners and me. Pls drop a line if interested (I leave nearby)--PM, e-mail, or GSM ((139) 1837-8677).
