What is Racketball?

Racketball is the UK’s fastest growing sport! Similar to squash it is played on the same court but with a bigger, bouncier ball and shorter rackets. Sometimes called Squash57.

 

"Easy to learn yet difficult to master"

The fact that the ball is bigger, more bouncy and does not need warming up means that the rallies last longer as the ball moves slower giving the opponent more time to react and get to the ball.  The shorter racket also helps with hand eye coordination making the ball easier to strike.  Overall this makes the game much easier to pick up than many other sports like squash or tennis.  Racketball is said to be, "Easy to learn yet difficult to master" which is one of the key factors in the sports recent growth.
