Christmas Gifts for Tennis Players

We are nearing that jolly time of the year filled with presents and food. Let’s look at some Christmas Gifts for tennis players.

When you are buying Christmas gifts for tennis players, there are lots of ideas that come more or less automatically. Every tennis player needs over grips, strings, shoes, racquets, shirts or maybe a fun training gadget like the Functional Tennis Saber.

Let’s have a look at some gift ideas for the Holidays.

Tennis Racquet as a Christmas Gift

Buying a tennis racquet can be daunting if you need to learn about racquets and maybe you need to know which racquet your partner, friend, or kid would like. But if they are a beginning tennis player or just took up the sport again after some absence, the task is a little easier. Here are some racquet recommendations that should put a smile on the recipient’s face.

First of all, you can probably get a bargain deal if you check out Cyber Monday or Black Friday sales. Our friends at Tennis Warehouse (North America), Tennis Warehouse Europe and Tennis Only have some great discounts at the moment.

When it comes to buying a racquet, there are some bestsellers that rarely land wrong in a tennis household.

HEAD Speed MP

There has been a lot of buzz around this racquet since it is what Jannik Sinner and Novak Djokovic endorse. It is a user-friendly racquet that does most things well. You can get the dark limited edition version or go for the standard white/black one. It is a racquet that appeals to a wide audience and works well for many types of players.

Babolat Pure Aero Rafa

If you are a Rafa Nadal fan, or just like brightly-colored racquets that stand out. The Babolat Pure Aero Rafa is a nice gift. There is also the heavier Origin version for the Nadal fan who wants to know how it feels to play with Rafa’s actual racquet. The Aero family is always a safe bet for tennis players.

Wilson Clash

The Wilson Clash V2 is the racquet with the strongest Christmas vibes. The dark red cosmetic works really well at this time of year and they are also excellent racquets with good comfort for beginners to intermediate players.

The Clash 100 is the standard racquet in the line-up, but there is also the Clash 108 if you want a lighter racquet.

Tennis Bag as a Christmas Gift

We have written a post about the best tennis bags here. Besides the tennis bags mentioned there, there are some bags that stand out.

The Babolat Pure Aero Rafa Bag is a real head-turner and also a high-quality tennis bag for the serious player.

But this is a big bag and perhaps you want a smaller bag. You can get an overview of tennis bag sizes and models here.

This Wilson Khaki tennis backpack looks pretty cool

Cancha offers some great tennis bags that stand out and are ultra-durable and we know that Geau Sport tennis bags have become very popular due to their practicality.

I am currently using this stylish Lacoste duffel bag. It fits a lot more than you think!

Other tennis gifts

Buying tennis shoes is tough for gifting as size and fit become an issue. Overgrips are always important, but maybe not the most fun gift. Same goes for tennis strings. Although we have listed our Recommended strings.

Tennis apparel is always a great gift. We use a lot of classic Nordic Dots apparel and you get 10% off using our link or the code TENNISNERD10.

But there are many brands that produce great tennis clothes. Check out the TW selection here.
