Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Joe Sobek is credited with inventing the sport of racquetball in the Greenwich YMCA, though not with naming it. A professional tennis player and handball player, Sobek sought a fast-paced sport that was easy to learn and play. He designed the first strung paddle, devised a set of rules, based on those of squash, handball, and paddleball, and named his game paddle rackets. In February 1952 Sobek founded the National Paddle Rackets Association, codified the rules, and had them printed as a booklet. The new sport was rapidly adopted and became popular through Sobek''s continual promotion of it; he was aided by the existence of some 40,000 handball courts in the country''s YMCAs and JCCs, wherein racquetball could be played. In 1969, aided by Robert W. Kendler, the president-founder of the U.S. Handball Association, the International Racquetball Association was founded using the name coined by Bob McInerney, a professional tennis player. That same year, the IRA assumed the national championship from the National Paddle Rackets Association.
