"Racquetgoal" rules are perfect for "Matkot". Try those rules and matkot will be a real addiction to everybody. I send those rules to anybody like to test the best paddlesport. cu!

This brings back many memories of my younger days growing up in the Carribbean playing this game.

I am presently living the the UK. Not suitable weather but I still like to play.

I hope I can find some player here in the UK
