Tennis rackets are not gender-specific. That said some rackets will appeal more to women by way of specifications or by colour. Most women tend to gravitate towards really light, forgiving rackets, which is not a bad strategy. This page shows a range of rackets which we think will better suit you; from occasional recreational players to those of you who play regularly and competitively. They are organised by brand and not by technical specification seeing as there is no one type of racket suitable and is by no means exhaustive.
We have also selected a range of tennis bags and accessories that are really favoured by our female customers.
Be sure to check out our other tennis departments and guides, including our section on "How to Choose a tennis racket" which aims to help you find the tennis racket that is most suited to you and your ability.
Choose the Ultimate Control rackets if you are an accomplished player or are looking for ultimate control as you have a long, powerful swing.
Choose the Power & Spin rackets if you are looking for a nice mixture of power and control.
Choose the Intermediate rackets for the ultimate in power and forgiveness...easy on the arm and lightweight.
Many of these tennis rackets come pre-strung from the manufacturers in strings and tensions which are suitable for the majority of players. If you do prefer a specific string or tension on a factory strung racket, or are looking to purchase a 'Frame Only' racket, we provide an optional stringing service.
Selecting the right tennis racket is a deeply personal process for players. Factors such as playing style, skill level, and personal preference come into play. It's crucial to consider factors like racket weight, head size, balance, and grip size to find the perfect match that complements one's game.
