There are many different facts about racquetball. Some include: -Racquetball was invented by a man name Joe Sobek. -Racquetball was made an official sport in 1952 under the name "paddle racquets." -Racquetball is based on the rules of squash, handball, and paddleball.
Legally, in competition, no. The size and shape of a racquetball racquet is specific to the structural integrity and overall safety of the racquet.
Many racquetball gloves are made of leather. They are often perforated to allow airflow into the hand.
Answer 1You can but you shouldn't. A tennis racquet is much larger and designed for a larger ball than a racquetball racquet. Officially speaking, it is against the rules to play with anything other than a racquetball racquet. Answer 2Most games have dimensions and rule boundaries placed on official equipment allowable. I believe there are constraints on the racquets that should be used in racquetball, including the shape of the end of the face. There are also practical disadvantages for using tennis racquets in racquetball - they are far too heavy and cumbersome. The ball needs to be struck with a kind of throwing action and one that is very fast.This action is not as efficient or as possible with tennis equipment as it is using the proper impliments.

For a match of racquetball it is best 2 out of 3 games. 2 games to 15. tie-breaker to 11, if necessary.
There is a Manhattan based racquetball meetup group located here. http://www.meetup.com/The-New-York-Racquetball-Meetup-Group/ It is a community of racquetball players in Manhattan and greater New York. There they have quarterly ladders as well as one-off events. There are quite a few members, which makes it quite easy to score some pick up games as well. Cheers.

To get started playing Squash and Racquetball, you will need a racquet, a "birdie" (the ball that you hit), and net. If you get more into it, you may want to look at special gloves and shoes that will help your game.
