Racket restringing
At Team Bath Tennis you will find a first-rate stringing service run through the tennis team. The stringing is done by one of our experienced stringers who will let you know when their work is done. The tennis team are more than happy to advise you over your choice of string and the tension you want the string to be in the racket. Please see our string availability and prices, and a short introduction to choosing the correct string.

Which string is best for me?
Synthetic Gut
This is a soft string which will play well, feel nice on the arm but will not last very long. Ideal for juniors or older players.
Polyester
This is a strong and powerful string which will not break that frequently. The downside is that it is not too kind on the body and it may also lose string tension long before it breaks.
Hybrid
Hybrid is where you have two different string types for the main and the cross strings and is good for performance juniors as they start to break strings. The enhanced durability gives longer between string breakages but the softer crosses reduce the amount of shock and helps protect young muscles. We would recommend most players opt for a Hybrid option.

Terms and conditions
Please note, although frames are inspected for damage when they are handed in, we cannot guarantee the condition of the frame prior to stringing. Should frame damage occur as a result of normal stringing procedure, we cannot be held responsible.
Rackets must be collected within 28 days of the restring, failure to do so may result in the racket being hired out to customers.
Although we try our best to have a 3-5 day turnaround on the rackets, at busier times it may be slower and as such cannot be guaranteed to be complete within 5 days.
