TOP 3 HOLIDAY GIFT IDEAS

‘Tis the season  – and it’s time to start thinking of gifts for your favorite tennis player.  Not sure what to get this season?   Here are my top three ideas for this holiday season. 

1)      The Perfect Racquet

Buying the perfect racquet as a gift is a daunting task.  There are so many brands and types of racquets available.  How to choose?  Well, here is a great way to buy a racquet, making sure it is the right one for your tennis all-star.  Let the person at the shop know what racquet your player has now.  The shop attendant will be able to tell you which new racquets are similar.  Give the gift unstrung and let the gift recipient demo various racquets.  Then, if the recipient likes a different racquet,  return the gift racquet for the more desired one.  .  Keep in mind, ProAm Tennis will take a racquet return as long as the plastic wrapping is still in the handle and the cardboard label is on the head.

2) The All-in-One Racquet Bag

This is a fun and creative way to get the perfect gift.  First, start with a tennis bag.  Backpacks have been very popular lately.  Look at the tennis accessory wall and find some great small items to fill the bag.  Thinking about what the person will NEED on court.  Avoid items that are useless or seasonal.  A few ideas are overgrips, replacement grips, wristbands, socks, rosin bag or bottle, tacky towel, court towel, vibration damper, ball holder, and tennis balls. 

3) The Good Ol’ Gift Card

Getting a gift card is the easiest and most convenient of all gifts.  It gives the recipient the opportunity to use it for a variety of items of his/het own choosing.  Gift cards equivalent to 3 or 4 string jobs are very popular at ProAm Tennis.  

Those are my top three gift ideas for the holidays this year.  If you have any other ideas feel free to contact me at Roddy@proamtennis.com.  Happy Holidays!
