Hi All,

Please take a few minutes to vote for the board of directors for the California/Nevada (CNRA)Racquetball Association.  This is a _volunteer_ board and the people on this board help to shape and grow racquetball in California & Nevada, and you vote for the members!

Some people have been on the board and helping to grow racquetball in California for many years, and Jack Hughes has volunteered his time for quite a few years at our collegiate tourneys, helping out and bringing gear to support the events; see below.

Jack Hughes Candidate Statement:
Las Vegas, NV

Given my background outlined below and my passion for the sport I would like to ask that you consider supporting me to fill a seat on the CNRA Board of Directors in the upcoming election.  I would like to continue to serve the members of the CNRA and promote the great game of racquetball.

I have served on the CSRA Board of Directors for a number of years, and have a strong desire to continue to serve as a CNRA Director.  I believe the partnership of the California State Racquetball Association and the Nevada State Racquetball Association (CNRA) is a partnership that can only benefit all the players in both states.   Since I have recently moved to Las Vegas I look forward to working with those currently supporting Nevada racquetball and making both states stronger in all aspects of racquetball.

As a CSRA Board member I have served as the CSRA President, CSRA Vice-President and presently hold the office of CNRA Treasurer.  I also served two four-year terms on the USA Racquetball Board of Directors.  Presently I am a member of the USA Racquetball Hall of Fame and Annual Awards Committees.  I attend as many national racquetball events as possible as a volunteer and an advocate for the sport at the state and national level.

In addition to the normal financial duties of Treasurer my responsibilities also include but are not limited to: calculating and submitting the state rankings to the CNRA web site, sanctioning the California and Nevada events with USA Racquetball and processing the USA Racquetball membership applications from tournaments.

I have served as a tournament director for the State Singles and Doubles Championships many times, and have worked the tournament desk at the USA Racquetball National Singles for a number of years.

I continue to assist tournament directors in the use of R2, the computer tournament software program, whenever they request assistance.  I have also suggested improvements to the R2 coordinator, some of which have been implemented.

Currently I am also a member of the Board of Directors of the Military Racquetball Federation (MRF) and serve as the Program Coordinator.  The MRF is a non-profit organization promoting and supporting racquetball tournaments and shootouts at bases throughout the world.  The MRF also promotes racquetball as a means of rehabilitation of Wounded Warriors through their Racquetball Rehabilitation Clinics (RRC).  We reach out to military bases and Veteran Administrative hospitals throughout the US.  The program is only four years old and growing in leaps and bounds.

I look forward to continuing to serve our racquetball family!

Thanks for your support,

Jack Hughes
