2008 Nationals
Mike Green (On) and Christie Van Hees (AB) captured the men’s and women’s open singles division titles at the 2008 Canadian Racquetball Championships held in Burlington, On in May. Green extracted a little bit of revenge by defeating Vincent Gagnon (QC) in the final. Gagnon and his partner Françoise Viens had claimed victory over Green and his partner Brian Istace (AB) earlier in the week in the men’s open doubles final. Van Hees defeated Jennifer Saunders (MN) in the women’s final.
The women’s open doubles title was awarded to Veronique Guillemette (AB) and her partner Geneviéve Brodeur (QC) who triumphed over Saunders and her partner Josée Grand’Maître. This was the first national doubles titles for Viens, Gagnon, Guillemette and Brodeur.

2008 Pan American Championships
The Canadian National Racquetball team travelled to San Jose, Costa Rica in March for the 2008 Pan American Racquetball Championships and were able to bring back the bronze medal for the team competition.

In the men’s singles division Kris Odegard (Saskatoon, SK) was a perfect 2 – 0 in round robin play which earned him the first seed position in the playoff round. Odegard, who is the current Canadian singles champion, won his first two matches of the playoff round before falling in the semi-finals to the eventual gold medal winner Alvaro Beltran (Mex). Canada’s other men’s singles player was Ryan Smith (Burlington, ON) who also finished pool play at 2 – 0. Smith, playing in his first Pan Am’s, started the playoff round as the third seed but was also defeated in the semi-finals by Leopoldo Gutierrez (Mex). Under International Racquetball rules both semi-final losers are awarded bronze medals.

In the men’s doubles division current Canadian doubles champions, Mike Green (Burlington, ON) and Brian Istace (Calgary, AB) cruised through the pool play round with a 3 – 0 match record and found themselves seeded second in the playoff round. In the playoff round Green and Istace won their first two matches before having to settle for a bronze medal finish with a semi-finals loss to the gold medal winners Javier Moreno and Gilberto Mejio (Mex).

Playing women’s singles for Canada was Jennifer Saunders (Winnipeg, MN) and Veronique Guillemette (Calgary, AB). Saunders was unbeaten in pool play going 3 – 0 and continued her winning streak with 2 wins in the playoff round before being defeated by Paola Longoria (Mex) in the semi-finals and earning the bronze medal.   Guillemette had Canada’s only pool play loss going 2 – 1 and ended her tournament with a loss to first seed Ronda Rajsich (Phoenix, AZ).

Canada’s women’s doubles team consisted of Josée Grand’Maître (Longueuil, QC) and Frédérique T Lambert (Montreal, QC). Lambert was also playing in her first Pan Am’s and has a bronze medal to show for her efforts after she and Grand’Maître took their 3 – 0 pool play record and second seeding into the playoff round which, unfortunately, ended in the semi-finals with a loss to silver medallists Angela Grisar and Fabiola Marquez (Chi).

The next international event for Team Canada is the World Racquetball Championships to be held in Kingscourt, Ireland August 1 – 10, 2008.

2008 Junior Nationals
The 2008 Canadian Junior National Racquetball Championships was held in Brossard, QC in April. Sean Barclay (SK) took first place in the boy’s 18 and under division with a final match victory over Mathieu Messier (QC). The girl’s 18 and under title went to Denise Haynes (NS) who defeated Christine Richardson (SK).   Messier was a champion though when he paired with Jérôme Normand (QC) to win the boy’s 18 and under doubles division with a victory over Conrad Cole (ON) and his partner Mike Rojas (ON). The girl’s 18 and under doubles crown belongs to Frédérique T Lambert (QC) and her partner Brigitte Richard (QC) after claiming victory over Richardson and her partner Carly Bosomworth (SK) in the final.
