Basics of Racquetball
Basics of Racquetball
Racquetball is a mental and physical sport where the general objective is to win a point by either hitting a serve or return shot where one’s opposing player(s) cannot return it before a double bounce. Racquetball is a fun sport, and there are many ways to improve racquetball skills, including mental strategies and drills.
Two Ways to Win a Rally
- Two Bounces. When an opponent is unable to return a ball before it bounces twice.
- A Skip Ball occurs, meaning an opponent’s return hits the floor before it touches the front wall.
Markings on the Court -
- The Short Line– The halfway line in between the back and front walls. One’s serve must first hit the front wall and reach beyond the short line before hitting the ground.
- The Service Line– A line five feet closer to the front wall from the short line.
- The Receiving Line– A line located in between the Short Line and the Back Wall. It is 5 feet behind the Short Line and is dashed.
- Service Area – The 5 x 20 square foot area contained within the receiving line and the short line. Both the server and the returner are unable to enter this area until the ball has either hit the floor or crossed the receiving line.
