The United States dominated the racquetball events in the first three games, but Mexico has been the dominant country in the last four games, winning 11 of 12 gold medals in the women's events and 6 of the 12 gold medals in the men's events.

In 2023, for the first time four countries split the gold from the 7 events (men's & women's singles & doubles, mixed doubles & men's & women's team events), and that's the most countries to win a gold in racquetball at a single Pan Am Games.

The Pan American Sports announced that racquetball will be included in the 2027 Pan American Games program in Lima, Peru on August 7, 2025.^[1]
