Demo Racket Terms

A unique opportunity to try out one of Babolat's high quality rackets before making a full commitment.

For £20.00, you can demo a racket and test it out for a maximum of 10 minutes, allowing you to assess its performance, feel, and compatibility with your playing style.

We will fit an overgrip on top of the poly wrapping on the sleeve as well as a protective strip to the head, so as to avoid any damage to the racket whilst you test it.

If you like it and want to keep it, the £20.00 will be refunded. Please email us at [email protected] to let us know you would like to keep the racket, simply quoting your order number.

If returned, the £20 is non-refundable - please note the racket must be returned in perfect, unmarked condition with demo racket fittings attached. If the racket is damaged or the protective elements removed, you will not be able to refund the racket and demo charge.
