About this app

Ghosting is an established training exercise in racket sports to practice court movement without a ball. Moving to the various corners of the court improves both footwork and general stamina. In the best of worlds, your coach or sparring partner will always be ready to point you to random corners at a pace that pushes you to your limits.

Unfortunately, few people have access to a coach at all times, thus have to run the exercise on their own. That means the randomness in the directions is missing.

With RacketGhost you get a ghosting coach in your pocket, always ready to run another ghosting session with you!

Getting Started

1. Configure your ghosting session.
2. Put your mobile device in front of you on the court.
3. Press "GO!" to start your ghosting session.
4. Move to the starting position (mid court).
5. RacketGhost highlights court positions for you to reach.
6. Compare your recent session with your ghosting history.
7. Press "Back" to return to the main screen.

i have tried ghosting on my own but the distraction of choosing a corner interfered with focus on movement and footwork ... i cannot afford to have a coach on the balcony!!! this app is awesome. it does exactly what you need and the sliders provide for a huge variety of sessions and paces. it is improving my movement on Court no doubt and i use it weekly.

A great app that works a treat for squash ghosting , Have tried some of the Pad alternatives but ultimately this one works the best !

Really good ghosting app. Has all the usual settings (time between shots, shots in set, number of sets, rest between sets, etc). However some things stand out... First it doesn't use a stupid numbering system. No idea why most ghosting apps number the corners, that just adds delay as your brain has to remember which one is "5"! This uses front/volley/back left/right. Secondly the sounds are cleverly panned so the left commands are panned left and right to the right. Once you realise this, it's so useful! Finally it sensibly gives you less time for the mid-court volleys, which makes sense as they're much closer to the T. Excellent app, way better than any other ghosting app I've tried (and that included paid ones!). Top stuff!
