Racquetballs and tennis balls?

December 14, 2009 by

Are racquetballs about the same size as tennis balls? Are they any lighter? [racquetballs]. Are they smaller? Bigger?

I want to use racquetballs to be able to hit against a wall, [playing tennis]; I want to use racquetballs to practice volleying in tennis [against the garage wall/inside the garage], so it won’t be as loud as a normal tennis ball would, hitting a wall.

    Do u mean squash’s ball. If it is, it’s smaller and lighter than tennis ball. They are bouncy in different way

    Racquet balls have more bounce, are lighter, no felt, and I honestly wouldn’t recommend this. A key part of volleying is touch, and if you are using a racquet ball the ball with come off the strings completely different as with a tennis ball. It would help with reaction time though, I just assume use a tennis ball though. If im not mistake a can of tennis balls and racquet balls cost the same roughly
