Squash Racquets 

Squash is a sport that demands attention, fitness, and patience to ensure that you respond quickly and serve the squash ball effectively. Although choosing a racquet is an exciting process for most players, it can also be difficult to select the right one. A squash racket affects your performance as much as your agility and precision on the court do, therefore it is important to choose the right one.

Choosing a Squash Racquet

Selecting the right squash racquet goes beyond selecting the popular racket brands or spending a fortune on premium rated rackets. You should first consider various aspects of the racquet such as the weight. Heavier racquets tend to provide more hitting power and are excellent for players with slow swings, whereas light-weight racquets are generally ideal for quick swings and volley shots. Balance is important when selecting a racquet as lighthead racquets tend to allow for quick movements and touch play. On the other hand a heavy based racquet offers more control and increased power. A key component of the selection process involves considering the head shape and head size, where suitability varies depending on the individual.
