Squash: rackets, balls and strings

Squash Equipment

• Squash Rackets: to compare by weight and balance.
• Squash Balls: from the blue dot to the double yellow dot.
• Strings: thin for feel, thick for durability.
• Accessories: grips, bags, and protective eyewear.

The Ball by Level

The blue dot bounces the most and helps beginners. The red dot slows down a bit, the single yellow dot is suitable for club players, and the double yellow dot, the slowest, is for competitors.

The Racket: Weight and Balance

A light racket is quick to handle in corners, while a heavier racket absorbs shocks better. A neutral balance is the most versatile for beginners.

Grip and Overgrip

Sweat can quickly make the handle slippery. A new overgrip provides better hold and is replaced more often than the original grip.

Protecting Your Eyes

A squash ball can hit the eye at high speed. Protective eyewear is highly recommended, especially for young players.

Brands on the Court

Tecnifibre with the Carboflex and Slash rackets, Head with the Radical, Dunlop, Wilson, and Prince make up the core of the offering.
