Racquetball is an ideal combination of exercise and enjoyment. It provides great workout by helping increase stamina, lower body fat level, improve muscle tone and burn about 700 calories from the body. Racquetball has become one of the most strenuous cardiovascular workouts available at present.
A former squash and tennis teacher, Joe Sobek, invented racquetball in 1950, and today is extremely popular throughout North America. It is a sport that can be enjoyed in all weather. At the same time it is a good exercise, as it requires very good hand eye coordination and a knowledge of angles and spin techniques. Racquetball has also become popular amongst women because it is easy to learn.
Racquetball is a fast game, played with racquets and a hollow rubber ball in an indoor or outdoor court. Racquetball needs two teams of one or two players each, who then hit the ball against one of the four walls or ceiling of an enclosed court with short racquets made of wood, steel, or fiberglass, strung with nylon and featuring a wrist strap.
The standard racquetball court is an enclosed rectangular area, about 40 feet long, 20 feet wide and 20 feet high. The racquetball court is marked with a short red line that is parallel to the front wall and 20 ft from its parallel back wall. The receiving dashed line lies 5 ft parallel behind the short line. The serve line, also parallel to the short line is 5 ft closer to the front wall. The two sets of screen lines form a double box and serve box respectively. It is about 18 and 36 inches from and parallel with the short and serve lines and sidewalls.
Racquetball rules require that all the players must start the game by standing within the serve box or zone. The shots must hit the front wall before hitting the ground to keep the ball in play. The ball should hit the floor before touching the back wall during the serve. The receiving team must stand inside the receiving zone during each serve. The server must bounce the ball first inside the service zone and strike it with the racquet before the ball bounces a second time.
Players of any age can start playing racquetball after learning all the basic racquetball rules. Beginners can play singles racquetball but doubles are not for the novice or inexperienced player, as it requires a lot of practice. However, in general racquetball is a fun and enjoyable game for any beginners young and old.

Tennis Racquets: Variations And Modifications
I only played tennis with my father once. At that time, he wore a white T-shirt, white shorts that came to well above his mid-thighs, white shoes and white knee socks. In his defense, he was (and still is) in very good shape, and he pulled off the look much better than most of his contemporaries could have. Of course, the crowing glory to his ensemble was his wooden, circa 1975 tennis racquet. Its wooden frame and small, ovular head were in marked contrast to my racquet's metal frame and neon-colored polyester strings. However, that contrast now serves as an excellent example of the changes tennis racquets have undergone over the past few decades.
Tennis racquets have, in one form or another, been around for hundreds of years. Up until the late 1960s, most tennis racquets were made of laminated wood. At that time, the first steel racquets were introduced and popularized by Jimmy Connors, a top American tennis player of the era. A few years later, aluminum construction came on the market, which allowed for racquets of much lighter weight. As a result, "oversized" racquet heads were popular for the first time. Previously, racquet heads had been about 65 square inches in area. After the inception of the aluminum frame, heads jumped in size to approximately 110 square inches. Aluminum frames were followed by carbon fiber, ceramics, glass fiber, boron and titanium composites in the early 1980s. Since then, composite frames have become the industry standard.
While modern tennis racquets vary in length, weight and head size. Those for adults are usually about 27 inches in length, and they can weigh between eight and twelve ounces (without strings). The size of the head is a major determining factor in a racquet's capabilities. While a larger head allows for more power, a smaller one gives the player more precise control. Today, heads can vary from 90 to 137 square inches in area.
The strings are is another major area of racquet variability. On traditional tennis racquets, natural gut was the material of choice, and some modern racquets still use cow intestine. This material is actually considered by many to be the best for tennis racquet strings in terms of overall playability. However, natural gut strings break easily and are very expensive, which means that only professional tennis players tend to use them.
Synthetic gut, on the other hand, is widely used by amateurs and pros alike. It can be made from a variety of artificial materials, making it cheaper and easier to manufacture than the natural version. Strings made from synthetic gut are also more durable. The most popular synthetic strings are nylon. These strings have a tendency toward breakage and often come with wear-resistant coatings. Polyester is also common; these strings are fairly stiff and do not create as much power, which allows a player to better control the ball with a full swing. Kevlar is the stiffest and most durable of the synthetic materials. It is often used in conjunction with another material, as Kevlar by itself is too stiff for many players. All of these materials come in both "monofilament" and "multifilament" variations: the former means a string composed of a single, thick strand, the latter being a string made up of multiple, smaller strands.
