HOW TO BUILD YOUR OWN COURT RITUAL

HOW TO BUILD YOUR OWN COURT RITUAL

MAKE YOUR WARM-UP AS POWERFUL AS YOUR SWING

Tennis isn’t just physical—it’s psychological warfare. The ones who win aren’t always the fastest or strongest. They’re the ones who are locked in before the first serve. The ones who’ve built a ritual so solid it becomes armor. If you want to own the court, you need more than a game plan—you need a ritual.

Here’s how to build yours.

1. LOCK IN YOUR MIND BEFORE YOU STEP ON COURT

Start by creating a moment of focus. Whether it's a song that gets you fired up, a mantra you repeat, or a few deep breaths with your eyes closed—your ritual begins before you even touch the racket. That’s where your mental edge is forged.
Hold your racket. Feel its weight. Grip it like you mean it. Let it remind you of what you came to do.

2. RE-GRIP WITH INTENTION

Changing your grip isn’t just maintenance—it’s part of your mental reset. The second you peel off the wrapper and start smoothing that overgrip around the handle, you’re getting your hands and head ready for the pressure ahead.
Our Performance Overgrips are crafted to keep your hands dry, your grip strong, and your mind locked in. It's not just a fresh wrap—it’s a pre-match mindset. Get a grip.

3. DAMPEN THE NOISE (IN YOUR HEAD AND ON YOUR STRINGS)

Too much chatter—whether in your mind or from your strings—can throw off your rhythm. Silence both. Add a vibration dampener right before you play to symbolically and physically mute the chaos.
Made from premium-grade silicone, our Vibration Dampeners are a subtle but serious weapon. Less noise, less vibration, more control.

4. MOVE WITH PURPOSE

Footwork isn’t just warming up—it’s grounding yourself. Get moving. Breathe into your body. Connect to the court. Whether it’s quick sprints, fence taps, or shadow swings, this is your transition into game mode.

5. OWN YOUR FIRST HIT

Your first swing should be intentional. It should be loud. You’ve prepped. You’ve locked in. Let that first connection with the ball be the exclamation point on your ritual.

BUILD YOUR RITUAL. DEFEND IT.

Every elite player has one—a court ritual that keeps them steady, focused, and dangerous. Now it’s your turn to create yours.
Smash Racket has the gear to make it stick. From the grip to the dampener, your ritual is only as strong as what you build it with.
