Squash is a fast-paced game, so keep your eyes on the ball and follow these simple steps.

Step 1: Serve the ball
Hold the racket with a tight grip. Hit the ball onto the front wall above the service line in the squash court. The ball must bounce in the quarter court where your opponent is standing, unless they volley.

Step 2: Return the serve
Your opponent returns the serve by hitting the ball before it bounces on the floor, called a volley, or after it has bounced once. The ball must hit the front wall below the out line, but may hit the back or side walls first.

Tip
Learn your opponent's strengths and weaknesses.

Step 3: Strategize your play
Alternate hitting the ball with your opponent.

Step 4: Alternate servers
Change servers when the ball bounces more than once, bounces before hitting the wall, or goes out of bounds.

Tip
Give your opponent room to take their shot; if interference occurs, it is a let and the point is replayed.

Step 5: Score points
Give a scoring point only to the server. The first player to nine points is the winner. Squash matches usually have five games.

Did You Know?
Squash originated in London in the nineteenth century.

"Squash is a fast paced game so keep your eyes on the ball." *proceeds to show fast, randomly-cut camera angles that induce headaches*

hmmm... I've got a ball and racket... but where can i buy an "opponent"?

[timothyivey]

Video instructions went as fast as the game, so I still have no idea. Thanks anyway.

I used to play tennis with the wall when I was small, Now I got to know it's called 'Squash'

[vijaygore]

Title for this video should be "How to make a bad video"

[pokadotguitarx]

for those who find this difficult. it is honestly not at all. its a quicker version of tennis but with a wall hitting the ball back and the opponent by your side rather than in front. maybe they explained it too quick for the noobs :/

I'm gonna be playing squash for the first time! Just very confused about 1 thing - the way it is played there is a great possibility of hitting your opponent by the racket. Does that happen?

[henryotter]

man i play squash, wish i was as talented as either of these 2. Heard they were both top 5 in England. AWESOME

[StagnantMizu]

Yeah I totally understood that! Thanks brother

[TheSodapops]

[yessie]

[MegaCyberleader]

Loved the video. it was as fast and dexteriouse as the game it self. Its fast and hard but allowed for really good sportsmanship.

[nikhildurge]

Squash is a fast paced game, so is this video..

[naveenjayavel]

You forgot to mention self confidence in the required list

[Faisdragon]

so the ball can only bounce once between the wall and the serve line?
