We stock racketball rackets, balls, court shoes, and eyeguards from Dunlop, Penn, and Babolat. Available in-store and online.

What Is Racketball (Squash 57)?

Racketball, officially known as Squash 57, is played on a standard squash court using a 57mm rubber ball that bounces higher and faster than a squash ball. The sport is easier to learn than squash, requires less warm-up time, and is particularly popular with older players and those returning to racket sports after a break. It is governed by World Squash and is growing in popularity across Irish squash clubs.
