But perhaps some consideration should be given to separating squash racquets more precisely from those games from which it derives and with which it is often confused.
Another minor variation on this theme is the vagueness related to squash, squash racquets, racquets , and squash tennis . All these games, of course, are basically the same in principle in that they involve playing a ball off four walls with a strung racket, the difference being in the dimensions of the court, the shape and size of the racket, and the size and make-up of the ball.
