Stocking Stuffer Tips

  • Dampeners and overgrips are always safe. Every player uses them, they wear out regularly, and preferences are flexible. You can't go wrong.
  • Avoid specialist items unless you know their setup. Lead tape and grip spray are great for the right player, but confusing for a casual one. When in doubt, go with accessories or apparel.
  • Two items under $15 beat one item at $20. Opening two small gifts feels more generous than one slightly bigger one. Pair a dampener set with a wristband or headband.
  • Night tennis gear is the surprise factor. Most players won't buy glow overgrips or LED wristbands for themselves. That's what makes them great gifts.
