squash ball
Hollow rubber sphere
A squash ball is the small rubber ball used in the racket sport squash.
Unlike tennis balls, squash balls are hollow, not pressurized, and vary in bounciness—indicated by colored dots—to suit different skill levels.
The balls are notably less bouncy than those in similar sports, requiring players to warm them up before play.
