Squash Equipment for You!
Squash is one of the
fastest growing games in the US. And, in my opinion, it's one of the best games
that you can play. It is the best exercise that you can get playing a game. Squash
descended from at least five different games including tennis, racquetball, and
hand ball. Racquets is considered to be the direct parent game for Squash. It
has been played since the middle of the 1800's. Like Squash it is also played
by using a racquet and by bouncing the ball against a wall with either two or
four players.
But in order to play you will need squash equipment like squash racquets, squash balls, squash goggles, and squash shoes. The best way to purchase squash equipment is from a squash pro shop. They are very easy to find on the web. All you have to do is type in a term relating to the game like squash balls or squash pro shop and dozens of websites will pop all offering you awesome deals to buy your equipment.
Squash has certain specialized equipment like squash goggles and squash shoes to help improve your game. Squash shoes help players to better grip wood floors that might otherwise be slick and easily slipped on, not only does this help you move but protects your ankles. They are very similar to specialized shoes like tennis shoes or cleat shoes used in soccer.
Squash goggles are used by some players to help protect their eyes from the fast moving balls that often bounce off of a wall heading towards the face. This is especially dangerous as they can land in an eye bruising it, or even causing blindness. This makes goggles very useful to players, especially children or people just beginning to learn how to play the game and may not have as quick of a reaction time.
Squash was once called squash racquets in order to describe the squashable rubber squash balls that it is played with. The name changed though as it became more popular among the general public. Today the game is so popular that it is in contention to become an Olympic sport in 2016 at the Rio de Janeiro in Brazil thanks to the success of the squash pro tour.
