Edinburgh will provide four men to the Scottish teams taking part in the inaugural Masters Racketball home international tournament at the Newlands club, Glasgow, this weekend.

Captaining the over-70’s will Colin Cruickshank from Edinburgh Sports Club while Waverley Sports Club’s Rod Robinson is included in the over-60’s squad.

Carrying the flag for Watsonians will be Chris Green (over-50’s) and Chris Gray (over-40’s).

Competing teams will be Scotland, England, Wales and Jersey.

Racketball is played on a squash court using a stringed racket and large hollow rubber ball.

Unlike squash the tin at the bottom of the wall does not come into play and the ball must be bounced prior to serving.
