Seven design ideas for your own racket
From a name in large letters to the pattern of your club colours: seven directions that work on a racket face.

An empty racket face is intimidating.
1. The name, large and done
The simplest design is the strongest gift: a first name in generous letters. Pick a solid typeface and one colour with plenty of contrast. Done.
2. Club colours as blocks
Two or three areas in the colours of your club or team, diagonally if you like. Large areas ignore the perforations completely and look professional from a distance.
3. The logo, once and with nerve
One large logo in the middle lands harder than the same logo three times small. Supply it as a vector file and it stays sharp at any size.
4. A photo across the whole face
A team photo or action shot filling the entire face gains a texture of its own from the holes.
5. Year and tournament name
For tournament prizes: the name of the tournament with the year turns a racket into a keepsake.
6. The pattern
A repeating pattern of one small element, your logo as a monogram for example, gives a designer look and hides the perforations effortlessly.
7. The inside of a joke
The more personal it is, the longer the racket lives on as a story.
