  • Patent number: 5254040
    Abstract: This invention generally provides an apparatus and a method for allowing the use of an existing handball court for playing both the game of handball and the game of squash. This invention includes an apparatus and method by which a rear squash wall is fixed at the appropriate location in an existing handball court for use during the play of squash. To then allow the play of handball, the rear squash wall is then detached, moved to the rear of the handball court, lifted to a position over the rear-end of the handball court and suspended behind and above the area of play used for handball. The reverse is performed to convert the handball court back for use for squash.
