Racquetball, a fast-paced and fun game, can be played by one or more players. You can play the game singles (one against 1) or doubles (2 against 2). The rules of this game are very simple so anyone can play it and enjoy it.
How to play
The basic raquetball rules can be broken down into three parts: serving, receiving, and scoring. Although there are many variations of racquetball you can use, these are the main rules that you must know to be able to play the game.
Service
For racquetball matches, the player must stand at least an arm's distance from the back wall. Then they need to hit the ball towards the front wall. Server for the game is the player who hits the ball closest to the wall first.
If the server serves a wrong, the opponent wins the point. The server now has two chances of serving successfully.
Returns
After a successful service, players return the ball alternately until one fails to make a good return. You can either hit the ball onto the wall directly or bounce it twice on the ground.
The rally is won if the ball is successfully returned by the first participant. Although the serving team is not eligible for points, they will be able to score the next point if their next serve is successful.
Doubles
In racquetball, teams of two players are formed for tournaments and competitions. They can compete in both singles and doubles, or they may also choose to form a "cut throat" team of three.
How to play with doubles
Doubles have stricter rules for racquetball than singles. For instance, only one racquet is allowed per player. It is illegal to walk behind your partner when they return the ball.
The racquet should be carried over your shoulder and not held high above your head. The wrist thong must remain in place while the racquet is being held.
A server cannot serve a fault if they fail to bring the ball into play within ten second of the score being called by the referee. A serving fault also happens when the server fails to serve the ball from the correct position in the service box.
Safety Zone Violations
In racquetball, the safety zone is the area between doubles partners' service boxes. The safety zone is the area between the doubles partners' service boxes.
Defective Serve
The serving player and doubles partner must remain in the safety line until the served ball crosses the short-line.
