How often do I need to get my racquet restrung?

The general rule of thumb for how many times a year you should get your racquet restrung is the same number of times you play a week.

For example, if you play three times a week, you should get your racquet restrung three times a year.

Over time, tennis strings will lose tension and elasticity which results in the feeling of dead strings.While the strings may look fine, the playability has been greatly reduced

Signs that you may need to replace your strings

• Strings feel dead
• Loss of power
• Loss of control
• Fraying of strings - some gut and multifilament strings fray as they get close to breaking
• Notching strings - as strings wear into each other, this creates a notch on the main string bed, if you notice deep notches on your strings, it may be time for a restring as they are getting close to breaking
