Since its humble beginnings, squash is a game that has grown significantly. Initially, players had to share a space with one another. For squash to be successful, players needed direct access to the ball as well as space to swing a tennis racquet. To allow the ball to move freely, the rules require that the court's back wall must not be blocked. If a player feels their opponent is interfering, they can appeal to the referee. However, the referee will determine how much interference.
