The term JAI ALAI is a fast-moving sport that originated in the Basque region of Spain. It is a court game where players use a curved basket to catch and throw a ball against a wall. The game is similar to squash, but with a much faster pace. Players must be agile and have excellent hand-eye coordination to be successful. JAI ALAI is popular in Latin America and the Caribbean, and is also played in some parts of the United States.
