Every tennis player knows how essential the perfect tennis bag is to their gear collection. Whether you’re a novice player or a regular tournament competitor, you’re sure to find a functional bag at Tennis Express. Here’s a guide to determining the right type of tennis bag to fit your needs.
The 3 pack is perfect for the occasional tennis player or beginner who is just getting a feel for the game. In a 3-pack you’ll have one main compartment big enough to accommodate up to 3 racquets with some room for clothes and some tennis accessories. There’s also 1-2 exterior zippered pockets used for smaller personal items as well as a single grab handle or shoulder strap for carrying.
For more advanced players who like to carry a few backup racquets, as well as additional tennis gear, the 6-pack may be the most convenient size. You’ll have one main compartment to hold 2-3 racquets, as well as a large adjacent compartment to hold an extra pair of shoes, a change of clothes, snacks and a few other items. Some bags will include thermal lining and backpack style straps but that is more common with higher-end tennis bags. On the outside you’ll have 1-2 small zippered compartments to hold your personal valuables.
Tournament, junior and frequent adult players will love the 8-15 pack options. These bags usually feature three large compartments capable of holding many racquets at a time along with other key tennis essentials. 1-2 compartments feature thermal lining insulation to help protect from extreme temperatures and there are 2-4 outside pockets to store smaller items. Backpack straps are very common with these bags so they can be carried easily even as you add more weight.
Backpacks and totes are the most popular tennis bags commonly used today. Both options give you great freedom to use it for tennis or other everyday activities. Higher-end backpacks will incorporate top-of-the-line technologies and feature room for 1-2 racquets, shoes, clothing, and small accessories. Totes can be functional, practical and fashionable. They feature multiple pockets for storage with eye-catching designs and simple straps for carrying.
