The racquet, including bumper guard and handle, may not exceed 22 inches in length. The frame may be any material judged to be safe, with a thong that securely attaches it to the player's wrist, and string that does not mark the ball.
In sanctioned tournament play, lensed eyewear designed for racquetball (which meets or exceeds ASTM F803 or Canadian [CSA] impact standards) is required. Players who require corrective eyewear must also adhere to this rule. Protective eyewear must be worn as designed and may not be altered. Approved eyewear must be worn and wrist thongs must be used during warm-up. Non-marking athletic shoes should be worn in the activity areas. |
