We at RacquetX counted at least six major racquet sports and a few others.

Much of the focus these days has been on the meteoric rise of pickleball in the United States. 

Tennis has long been a popular sport in both the U.S. and globally.

But what about squash, badminton, and table tennis (aka ping pong?) And…

Padel is booming in Europe, the Middle East, and Latin America, and is on its way in parts of Asia and Australia. It’s just starting to appear in the U.S. and attracting players, fans, associations, and manufacturers.

Plus…

We have racquetball, platform tennis, pop tennis, beach tennis, and crossminton. 

All of these sports have their roots in a game called “Palm” which was played in debtors’ prisons without any equipment.

Technology is also changing the racquet sports world, as people play online and use digital media to follow the sport and improve their game play.
