Welcome to the ARA!
Welcome to the Alberta Racquetball Association whose vision is to make racquetball accessible to all Albertans, and to be a national leader in programming, athlete development and good governance.
Our mission is to facilitate the participation and enjoyment of racquetball through the delivery of programs, access to resources, the development of coaches & officials and support to clubs & affiliates throughout the province.
We strive to build a strong future and legacy for racquetball by encouraging newcomers to the sport, supporting competitive athletes and fostering life-long participants. We endeavor to increase involvement and accessibility at all levels through promotion, advocacy, and funding.
THIS IS A TEST UPLOAD….3.13.26 WATCH FOR LIVE COMING SOON… The Alberta Racquetball Association has adopted The Alberta Code of Conduct (ABUCC) as the foundational document on which a respectful sport culture is based. To further prevent and address Maltreatment in Sport, the ARA announces The Alberta Safe Sport Complaint Mechanism (ABSSCM), ensuring an independent and confidential reporting, intake, assessment, investigation, resolution, sanctioning, and appeal pathway to enforce any AB UCC violations.
The ARA strives to deliver inclusive, accessible, welcoming and safe sport experiences. With this new on-line reporting mechanism, managed by third party provider ALIAS, and the Discipline and Complaints Guide those who seek help & support will find it by using the Complaints Button on the left or by reaching out to: https://app.alias-solution.com/contact/en/AB218
Through our funders - the Tourism & Sport Ministry of the Alberta Government and the Alberta Liquor & Gaming Commission the Alberta Racquetball Association serves the needs of racquetball players throughout the Province.
Volunteers
Each year, individuals from across the Province contribute their time and talent to support every aspect of our operation and in a variety of capacities. From organizing tournaments to running leagues, coaching, officiating and taking shifts at our bi-annual Casino nights, or participating on the board of directors, our volunteers are the strength of our organization.
