A bit of history.
40 years and more ago we were asked by Chester Knobbs, Ian, Reg Guppy and others, to make balls for ‘Racketball’,a NEW UK version of American ‘Racquetball’, because balls that were available, varied considerably.
There were no standards and there was continuing ‘debate’ as to what was required.
We resisted until Dunlop who sold a blue ball, moved all ball production to the far east and asked us to make their ball, whilst they organised supply in the Phillipines.
The Squash Rackets Association had been given ‘Racketball’ by Ian Wright, who earlier had asked us to develop a slower ball,in black, besides the blue ball we made for Dunlop. At that point we decided to sell Racketball balls under the PRICE brand,
At the same time slowing down the blue ball for the PRICE VERSION because Ian and other players asked. Other balls on the market were too lively. Both balls adopted as ‘Official’ Balls.
They later asked for the development of an intermediate ball between the blue and black ball and which is now a tournament ball. The original black ball still being used by some best players.
To distinguish the two black balls we named them ‘Price single dot’ and the ‘Price double dot’.
Development continued for the Association and we now produce a WHITE
