Head Tennis

Head is a leading global manufacturer and marketer of premium sports equipment. The motto being “Superior Performance Through Superior Technology”. Head was founded by Howard Head in 1950, located in Baltimore, Maryland to revolutionize wooden skis to a more modern metal and plastic material. The same concept applied when in the late 1960's a tennis division was created within the company to make the shift from wooden racquets to aluminum. Aside from skis and tennis, Head also is an industry leader in racquetball and badminton products. Through the years Head has developed to offer not only sporting equipment, but also caps, visors, footwear for Men and Women, wristbands, and headbands.

Introduced at the 1969 U.S. Open, aluminum tennis racquets became a major player in the tennis racquet industry. One of the early tennis greats to play with Head tennis racquets was Arthur Ashe, who won Wimbledon in 1975 among other accomplishments. Head has made a huge splash in the tennis racquet industry as roughly 30% of the top 100 players currently play with their racquets. Novak Djokovic, Andy Murray, Maria Sharapova, and all-time great Andre Agassi have succeeded playing with these racquets for a long time. Head is a brand that can be trusted and has great players that use or have used their products. 

In 1997, Head became the first company to create the titanium and graphite racquet. This paved the way for other brands that followed suit. They continue to be a leader in innovation and enhancement in technology while offering top of the line products for the everyday tennis player such as grips, hats, shoes, string, wristbands, and even bags. Head takes great pride in their products and the people who use them. From tennis players to skiers to badminton players, their goal is to offer the best products around.
