Racquetball

According to the current Racquetball rules there are no limitations on the weight of a racquetball racquet.

1. The racquet, including bumper guard and all solid parts of the handle, may not exceed 22 inches in length.
2. The racquet frame may be any material judged safe.
3. The racquet frame must include a cord that must be securely attached to the player's wrist.
4. The string of the racquet must be gut, monofilament, nylon, graphite, plastic, metal, or a combination thereof, and must not mark or deface the ball.
5. Using an illegal racquet will result in forfeiture of the game in progress or, if discovered between games, forfeiture of the preceding game.

Racquetball racquets, unlike many other types, generally have little or no neck; the grip connecting directly to the head. They also tend to have head shapes that are notably wider at the top, with some older racquets looking almost triangular or teardrop shaped.
