Sport review

Racquetball was invented as an alternative to tennis, as people wanted to play it indoors. It combines the rules of handball and squash, and it uses a racket.

It is played in an indoor court, in which the floor, the four walls and the ceiling are valid for the game. Competitors use a racket with a short handle and wide head to hit a rubber ball against the walls and ceiling. It is an aggressive and physical sport in which athletes often move quickly to score points.
