History of Ian’s Racketball .
Ian (Wright), Chester, Reg and others many years ago asked Derek Price to develop
and produce balls, for Ian’s new UK ‘Racketball’ game he had developed from American
‘Racquetball’.
The Racketball Association (Ian and other players) also asked for a slower blue
ball to be developed. Balls imported were too lively and variable from delivery
to delivery. When development complete PRICE balls were adopted as the‘Official’
Balls.
As the game grew the RBA (Ian) handed over the running to the SRA who asked Derek
to develop an intermediate speed ball between the blue and black balls.This became
the National tournament ball. The original black ball still being used by some
best players.
To distinguish the two black balls we named them Price ‘singledot’ © and the Price
‘doubledot’.©
