Best Answer

The little ball on your squash racket is used to absorb the shock when you hit the ball. Once you get your strings changed, though, you no longer need the ball because the strings that you get put on your racket are generally better than the ones that your racket came with. If you take off the little ball with the original strings, you will probably be able to feel a little difference when you hit the ball (it might vibrate a little).

The sport is called Squash because when you hit the ball on a solid structure, the ball tends to "squash" on impact.

Because the ball has to have a bit of warmth in it to bounce "right" for the game to be fun.
