After a lot of deliberation and a few solid rallies of conversation with our WTR representative and the Louisiana State Games officials, we β Mark Thompson & Steve Semones (Warhawk Open Tournament Directors) β have decided to step up and be a little more βRacquetball Awareβ for the bigger picture of the sport. π¦
We want to make it easier for players who love to compete in both indoor and outdoor events to do ALL the things β not just come throw down at the Warhawk, but also have the chance to represent their sponsors at the long-standing outdoor staple: Beach Bash. ποΈπͺ
β
SOβ¦ WEβRE MOVING THE WARHAWK OPEN BACK ONE WEEK.
π
NEW DATES: March 26β28, 2026
Everything else remains the same: Great hospitality π½οΈ, great competition π, and a great chance to experience one hell of an exciting tournament for Ballersβ¦ run by Ballers! ππ₯
And letβs be real for a second β the Beach Bash staff always seems to be getting held hostage by their host venueβs representatives π€ (we see you, and we respect the grind). Over here at the Warhawk, our tournament staff and local community liaisons have built a strong rapport not only with the Athletics Director at our host facility β the University of Louisiana at Monroe Activity Center β but also with many of the local and state-level sponsors who help grow this event year after year. π€π¦
Bottom line: this date shift is about supporting the sport, supporting the players, and keeping the racquetball community moving forward β without forcing anyone to choose. π―

Weβre confident the Warhawk Open will still be an absolute banger of a weekend β packed with ballers, packed with battles, and loaded with solid competitive matches against other great ballers. Bring the heat, bring the rollouts, and bring that βI didnβt drive here to loseβ energy. π₯π
