ITEM 1. SECURITY AND ISSUER

         This statement, as Amendment No. 9 to a previously filed Schedule 13D,
relates to shares of Common Stock ("Shares") of Radica Games Limited, a Bermuda
corporation ("Radica") whose executive offices are located at Suite R, 6/Fl.2-12
Au Pui Wan St., Fo Tan, Hong Kong with Radica's USA offices located c/o Radica
Enterprises Limited, 5301 Longley Lane, suite 157, Reno, Nevada 89511-1806.
Shares of Radica are traded on the NASDAQ over the counter National Market
System under the trading symbol of RADAF.

ITEM 2. IDENTITY AND BACKGROUND

     This Amendment No. 9 is being filed as an amendment to an originally filed
Schedule 13D, dated June 15, 1995, and is further amended by Amendment Nos. 1,
2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7 and 8 heretofore filed. As noted in the Schedule 13D and each
of the amendments thereto, each of the filing entities herein, specifically,
Dito Devcar Corporation, a Nevada corporation ("Dito") Dito Devcar, LP, a Nevada
limited partnership ("LP"), The DRP Charitable Trust ("DRP Trust"), TMP
Charitable Trust ("TMP Trust"), Dito Caree, LP, a Nevada limited partnership
("Dito Caree"), the Pickup family Trust ("Family Trust"), the Pickup Charitable
Unitrust II ("Charitable Unitrust II"), TD Investments, LLC ("TD Investments),
and BP Ventures, LLC ("BP Ventures") are record holders of Shares, and, although
Mr. Pickup owns no Shares of Radica, each of those entities, as identified in
the Schedule 13D and the amendments thereto, is directly or indirectly
controlled or operating for the benefit of Mr. Pickup.

         The total holdings of Shares owned by all the reporting entities
identified in the Schedule 13D and amendments thereto exceed 10% of the issued
and outstanding Shares of Radica. The identity and address of each reporting
person (including entities) is as previously reported.

         Acquisitions by all of the reporting entities have increased the
holdings of all the reporting entities to a total 5,947,218 Shares. Dito Devcar
Limited Partnership did acquire additional Shares in a period prior to sixty
(60) days before this Amendment No. 9, and its total holdings now represent
160,000 Shares. Additionally, Dito Caree LP did acquire additional Shares in a
period prior to sixty (60) days before this Amendment No. 9, and its total
holdings now represent 1,033,100 Shares.

         Subsequent to Amendment No. 7, two of the trusts, the DRP Charitable
Trust and the TMP Charitable Trust, changed their Trustees. The Trustee of both
trusts is now Mr. Dennis W. Harwood who has replaced Mr. Richard H. Pickup as
Trustee of those trusts. Mr. Harwood has acted, from time to time, as attorney
and legal advisor to Mr. Pickup and various of the reporting entities, and,
although Mr. Pickup no longer is the Trustee of said trusts, by reason of the
relationship between the entities and the fact that members of Mr. Pickup's
family are beneficiaries of said trusts (together with various charitable
entities), those two entities will continue to be reporting entities as members
of the group.

         Over the past five (5) years, none of the filing persons nor any of the
entities identified in the Schedule 13D, nor any trustee of a trust or general
partner of a partnership, nor any manager or member of a limited liability
company, nor any of the officers or directors of any corporation identified in
the Schedule 13D have been (1) convicted in a criminal proceeding, or (2) been a
party to a civil proceeding of a judicial or administrative body which resulted
in a judgment, decree or final order enjoining future violations of or
prohibitions or mandating activity subject to federal or state securities laws
or finding any violations with respect to such laws.


                                       3
<PAGE>   5

         Although Mr. Richard H. Pickup is the controlling person, trustee or
majority shareholder of each of the entities identified in the Schedule 13D, and
it is acknowledged that he exercises sufficient control in order to consider
each of the reporting entities to be treated as a "group," there exists no
agreements or understandings, either in writing or orally, between any of the
reporting entities and/or Mr. Pickup concerning the Shares nor their holding,
voting or acquisition or disposition of any Shares of Radica.

ITEM 3.  SOURCE AND AMOUNT OF FUNDS OR OTHER CONSIDERATION

         As previously reported, the Shares are acquired by means of private
capital or working capital of the entities acquiring said Shares and no portions
of said funds have been borrowed. All Shares of BP were acquired by working
capital of that entity. All Shares as reported herein as acquired by the Pickup
Family Trust, which transactions did occur subsequent to the most recent
amendment to the Schedule 13D, represents working capital or capital
contributions made to that entity.

ITEM 4.  PURPOSE OF TRANSACTION

         As previously reported, each member of the "group" controlled by Mr.
Pickup has purchased Shares in Radica for investment purposes only and no
agreement, formal or informal, written or oral, has been entered into by and
between any of the filing persons in connection with the information of any
group or any group action. Shares acquired by the Pickup family Trust were
acquired for investment purposes of said Trust. None of the other filing persons
has acquired or disposed of any Shares and the holdings of all filing persons
are as reported in Item 5 hereinbelow.

         Each of the filing persons retains the election and right of making
further acquisitions and/or dispositions of Radica stock from one or more
sellers or buyers, either through open market or negotiated private
transactions, or disposing of all or any portion of the filing persons' Shares
held in Radica stock, to one or more purchasers, either through open market or
in private negotiated transactions.

         None of the filing persons has any present plans or proposals which may
relate to or result in:

         A. The acquisition or disposition by any reporting person of any
additional securities of the issuer or the disposition of securities of the
issuer.

         B. An extraordinary corporate transaction, such a merger,
reorganization or liquidation involving the issuer or any of its subsidiaries.

         C. The sale or transfer of a material amount of assets of the issuer or
any of its subsidiaries.

         D. A change in the present board of directors or management of the
issuer, including any plans or proposals to change the number of directors or to
fill any existing vacancies upon the board.

         E. Any material change in the present capitalization or dividend policy
of the issuer.

         F. Any material change in the issuer's business or corporate structure.

         G. Changes in the issuer's charter, bylaws or instruments corresponding
thereto or other actions which may impede the acquisition of control of the
issuer by any person.

         H. Causing a class of securities of the issuer to be delisted from a
national securities exchange or to cease to be authorized to be quoted in an
inter-dealer quotation system of a registered national securities association.

         I. Causing a class of equity securities of the issuer becoming eligible
for termination of registration pursuant to Section 12(g)(4) of the Securities
Exchange Act of 1934, as amended.

         J. Any action similar to any of those enumerated above.


                                       4
<PAGE>   6

         Although no member of the filing persons has any present plans in
connection with any of the foregoing, none of the foregoing actions by any of
the filing persons, or any member thereof, can be ruled out in the future for
either the short or the long-term.
