Racquetball is a sport played on an indoor or outdoor court (either fully enclosed or with a front wall) where all surfaces, including the ceiling, are in play, using a strung racket and a small, hollow rubber ball.
This tag is used for racquetball facilities, such as racquetball courts. Racquetball courts can have three walls, but be careful not to confuse them with bunker silos (man_made=bunker_silo).
Don't confuse it with sport=squash, played in a four-walled court with marked out-of-court lines, or sport=padel, played on a fully enclosed court divided by a net.
