Tennis rackets, shoes and court essentials
Find guidance to choose tennis gear that suits your playing level and court type. From racket selection and stringing to footwear and accessories, practical choices enhance performance and reduce injury risk.
Racket and string considerations
Assess racket weight, head size and balance according to your strength and technique. String type and tension influence control and power; consider professional stringing for precise setups. Grip size and replacement grips are easy fixes to improve comfort and handling.
What to prioritise
- Shoes: court-specific soles and support for lateral movement help prevent slips and strains.
- Maintenance: re-stringing, grip changes and frame checks preserve racket performance.
- On-court gear: dampeners, wristbands and appropriate bags keep you organised.
- Value finds: refurbished rackets and clearance items can offer quality at lower cost when inspected carefully.
Book lessons or demo sessions to trial rackets and shoewear before committing. Consider court surface when choosing footwear and strings. With the right combination of equipment and upkeep, you can play more comfortably and focus on improving your game.
