RIX Rookie Tour 
The Rix Rookie Tour are non-elimination events for both boys and girls ages 8-13 years. This is fun way to introduce competitve play to recreational players. This series of events reaches hundreds of junior players each summer. Players are ensured of multiple matches and receive a Rix Rookie Tour shirt at each event. Events are held in locations across BC in May through September. Events use the "E-Z play" balls that are 3/4 the pressure of a regular ball allowing for long rallies. These events do not count for provincial rankings.
