May - June 1997: Volume 8, Number 3
Since ranking services are a benefit of USRA membership, RACQUETBALL will begin upholding its policy for publishing the "Top-Ten" national rankings of members only — effective with the next issue.
At that time, ranking lists will be reviewed prior to each publication to ensure that all named "top-ten" athletes in their respective divisions are current members of the USRA. This means that — in order to maintain a position in the published top-ten — it is the ranked athlete's responsibility to make sure that his/her membership is in good standing year-round.
Before you panic, think about it. In this list, approximately 60 ranked players (over 10%) are holding expired memberships.
Now, we're not going to embarrass those 60 people by highlighting their names or otherwise bringing attention to them this time, but some mysterious disappearances may strike you when the July/August issue hits the streets. And if you suspect that you might be among that "missing in action" group — you'll definitely want to confirm your status before JUNE 1.
