    The front wall has a 'front wall line' 4570 mm (15 feet) above the floor, connected by a raking 'front' line meeting the 'out' line on the back wall at 2130 mm (7 feet) above the floor. The front wall also has a 'service line' whose top is 1830mm (7 feet) above the floor with the 'board' (the equivalent of a net) 480 mm (18.9 inches) high.

    There is no net in squash.
    Is this the start of a series of trick questions?
    May I suggest next, "What weight is the ball in badminton?"

    The front wall includes a tin at the bottom that acts like the net in tennis: hitting the ball into the tin ceases play for that rally.
