WHAT IS RACKETLON?

It is a sport for everyone from the professional to the amateur. Like in Triathlon or Decathlon Racketlon is a combination of individual sports. The idea of the Marathon counts, players at all skill levels shall take part at one tournament together, but in different classes. Racketlon is the sport in which you challenge your opponent in each of the four racket sports table tennis, badminton, squash and tennis. A racketlon match contains four sets, one in each sport. Each set is played to 21 points, much like in table tennis, but the total winner of a racketlon match is not the one that wins most sets but the one that scores the most points in total. The winner is the best all round racket player.

Given the fact that the first international Racketlon competition was played in November 2001 and a spectacular growth by almost 300% during the period from Jan 2004 through Dec 2006 (from 524 players to 1925 players from 48 different countries on the world ranking) we believe that Racketlon is, at the moment, the fastest growing sport in the world.
