Brand new to the UK and already reported to be generating interest from local sports authorities and schools, Urban Racquet integrates tennis, squash and badminton.
Capable of being played on a variety of surfaces, it's portable, easy to use and can be played competitively over a net or just for training or fun purposes without a net.
Urban Racquet has three aspects:
- Competitive - played on a tennis court or Urban Racquet court, over a net. The game has rules and a structure and is said to provide a very physical workout
- Training - a teaching aid to practice strokeplay. Can be played indoors or outdoors, with or without a net
- Play - for solo use, similar to the Swingball concept
Equipment consists of the Urban Bag, for storing the balls and assuming the function of a counterweight; two types of string, one for competition use and one for practice purposes; a turning ring; two balls, made primarily from rubber; and two aluminium framed racquets with titanium fibre strings.
