Up until the 1970's, virtually everyone engaged in racket sports was using wooden rackets with leather gripped handles and natural gut strings. The introduction of aluminium and steel frames paved the way for increasingly lightweight and highly durable materials. Today most racket frames are made from light-weight graphite or graphite composites that incorporate materials such as titanium, kevlar or fibreglass, giving added levels of frame flexibility, while remaining cost effective.

Most commercially available racquetballs are made of rubber but it is not officially stated in the USA Racquetball Rules that it must be made out of a certain substance. As long as it meets the size requirements and functions correctly, it can be made out of a variety of substances.

A Table Tennis racket consists of a blade and two sheets of rubber.

The blade is made up of several layers of wood, although the official rules state that small amounts of other materials such as carbon fibre can also be included.
