What is the difference between Racquetball and Squash?

I play a lot of racquetball but I recently found out about Squash. From watching it, it seems to be basically the same as racquetball but with different rackets and I don’t think the Squash court has a ceiling.

The two look very similar. Is this the case in terms of rules and how the game is scored etc. Could Squash be played on a racketball court?


It could be played on the same court but the lines are different for playing real games. They rackets in both sports are different and so are the balls. Squash is a lot harder so younger people because you have to move really fast or the ball with stop. Racketball is alot easier, it is played with a bigger ball therefore easier to hit and it bounces higher/longer/faster! Good Luck :)

    Racquetball uses a ball; squash uses a squash.
