Even all the way in Perth and unable to bring his A game to Daisy Hill, Laf is still gracing the court in preparation for a return to the Sunshine State.

Mind you, by the looks of it the heat will get him before the game does.

In the world of sports, racquetball is relatively new.

It was created early in the 1900s by combining a few sports like handball, tennis, squash, and jai alai.

A professional handball, tennis, and squash player from Greenwich, Connecticut named Joseph G. Sobek has been credited with the invention of racquetball in its most modern iteration. He was working at a rubber factory in the 1940s when he designed the first rubber ball used in the sport today.

In 1952 Sobek founded the Paddle Racquet Association. From there he distributed rules for the game to all of the YMCAs in America.

Racquetball quickly gained in popularity. In fact, by 1969 racquetball had become so popular around the world that a man named Robert Kendler founded the International Racquetball Association. That’s when the name of the sport was officially changed to racquetball.
