We consider a slowly rotating rectangular billiard with moving boundaries and use the canonical perturbation theory to describe the dynamics of a billiard particle. In the process of slow evolution certain resonance conditions can be satisfied. Correspondingly, phenomena of scattering on a resonance and capture into a resonance happen in the system. These phenomena lead to destruction of adiabatic invariance and to unlimited acceleration of the particle.
