Xare is one of the disciplines of the sport Basque pelota. It is played with a racket and a ball in a court called a trinquete. Xare is very popular in South America and is played by both men and women of all ages.
Like other Basque pelota sports, share is played in pairs and is only allowed for men or individually.
The game takes place in the ratchet, which is a space surrounded by four walls, each one with its respective name, the most prominent being the "frontis" or front that serves as a receiver of the ball.
To achieve this goal, players use the share or racket to lightly retain the ball without hitting it.
In this way, they manage to return it with force and make it bounce against the wall using a series of techniques, that is, with movements of the hand and wrist.
The strategic play consists of defending the ball thrown by the rival team until obtaining the majority of points. A match is played between two two-player teams. The rules are similar to other wall-based sports, where the ball has to be returned back to the front wall with at most one bounce on the ground. The ball is allowed to bounce any number of times or even roll on the roof of the facade. Teams score points if the opponents are unable to return the ball back onto the wall. Matches are played in points and sets format.
In general, each game lasts approximately 20 minutes, however, the time may change.
On the court, the pelotaris can move backwards, forwards and to the sides, but the changes of position that they most often make are the frontal and rear ones, where the opponent executes offensive plays.
In the share, 40 points are played or through two sets of 15 points each.
The share is played on a rectangular court called a ratchet. In itself, it is a closed space that has a length between 28.5 and 30 meters, 8 meters high and wide.
It also consists of four walls: One Frontal, rebound, one right and one left.

The court used for playing xare consist of walls on all four sides. The left wall features a facade, about 2ft wide with a slanting roof, that projects onto the court. Unlike racquets used for other sports where the strings are tight, the strings in xare racquets resemble a woven mesh. Rather than striking the ball, the action resembles more like a catch and throw using the racquet. Besides the racquet and a ball, a bicycle helmet is the only other equipment used. In this sport it is essential that players wear a helmet as a protection measure. It is a fundamental rule, due to the speed that the ball reaches during the match. Consequently, an impact to the head can cause serious injuries. It does not require demanding clothing. Pelotaris wear pants and a short-sleeved shirt.
The materials that characterize this game are the ball and the share itself. Well, in this sport, the players use a racket made of wicker and cotton rope that is intertwined, slightly taut and fastened on the inside. The combination of all these materials will allow you to retain the ball for moments and send it back against the wall.
The rackets are 58 centimeters long and 18 centimeters wide approximately.
The balls are covered with leather and have a hard consistency. In general, they are 55 millimeters in diameter, and their weight is 83 grams.
