Racket Sports
Racket sports are competitive games played with a smooth, handheld implement called a racket, used to hit a ball or shuttlecock within defined boundaries. Examples include tennis, badminton, squash, and racquetball. These sports emphasize agility, timing, and precision, requiring players to move quickly, anticipate opponents’ shots, and execute accurate strikes. Played individually or in teams, racket sports often combine aerobic fitness with strategic thinking. They are popular worldwide for recreational activity, social interaction, and athletic competition, offering vigorous exercise and skill development across various skill levels.
