*** Demo Charge for a taped up new Tennis and Padel racket (try to buy) ***

If you choose the demo option on a "frame only" racket, you must pick a string upgrade option in order to try the racket.

We then advise that you have a very light 10 minute play with the racket to see if you like it.

If you keep the racket, the demo charge (£20 per racket) will be refunded.

(email [email protected] to request refund stating your name and order reference)

If you return the racket (within 14 days), the cost of the racket will be refunded LESS:

  • The demo charge (£20 per racket)
  • The cost of the string upgrade(s)
  • Charge for any sign of damage to racket.

Check our terms and conditions for a full explanation of the demo procedure.
