racquet

Sports equipment

A racket or racquet is a sports implement consisting of a handled frame with an open hoop across which a network of strings or catgut is stretched tightly. It is used for striking a ball or shuttlecock in games such as squash, tennis, racquetball, rackets, badminton and padel. Collectively, these games are known as racket sports. Racket design and manufacturing has changed considerably over the centuries.
