If you are hindered in any way from striking the ball, eg fear of hitting the opponent with the racket or ball, cannot get into position due to the position of the opponent, feel in danger of injury?

Call "Let please" and play stops. This will prevent injury, and the next decision to be made is who gets the point, or is the point replayed.

Here is the link to the Squash Library/Rules. Rule 12 - Interference is one of the most misunderstood rules in squash. Just keep reading it over and over until you feel confident to call "let" or "not let".

The wearing of eyewear is recommended for safety reasons.
