Racquetball is an indoor sport played in an enclosed court where the ball can be played off all four walls, ceiling, and floor. The enclosed space means the ball stays in play longer, resulting in more continuous movement and higher calorie burn than many other racket sports. Players must constantly sprint, lunge, twist, and dive to return shots from unpredictable angles. A typical game involves intense bursts of activity that build anaerobic fitness, agility, and hand-eye coordination.
