RACKETBALL in Britain
You started playing Racketball because it was easy to learn and comfortable to play.
After playing for a while you (some) find it has become too easy.The blue ball.
So would like a bit more of a challenge.
Human nature, subconsciously\consciously competitive, required balls to satisfy this need.
PRICE developed and produce a ball in black for this improving player.
Some players get extra keen and found that even that became too easy
and asked for balls to make a game even more competitive.
Price developed another ball, in black ,to do this.
To distinguish between the two balls
we christened them Single Dot© and Double Dot.©
Of course Ian’s Wright’s original idea was to modify the US Racquet game
so it could be played on squash courts by squash players, who wanted to continue playing,
but were beginning to find themselves slipping down squash ranking, ‘ recovery’ time etc getting longer.
Derek Price has been developing balls for 70 years and is the only producer of balls in the UK.
Others try to copy and make in cheap labour countries but they cannot match the 70 year experience.
