Popular Model Sold Out in 2 Hours Makes Anticipated Renewal. Tennis Lounge Exclusive Original Racket to Be Released on April 1st, Lowering the Barrier for Beginners to Start.

Tennis Lounge Co., Ltd. (Headquarters: Nagoya City, Aichi Prefecture), which operates tennis schools nationwide, will begin selling its self-developed original racket on its official online shop starting Wednesday, April 1, 2026.

This product is a rebranded version of a highly popular model that sold out 100 units in just 2 hours on the crowdfunding platform "Makuake." To coincide with its release, a "New Life Support Campaign" will be held until Wednesday, April 15, to encourage those starting tennis.

■ We want to lower the "barrier to starting" as much as possible. A challenge against rising prices.

Many of those who attend Tennis Lounge are holding a racket for the first time here.

In recent years, due to rising prices, the cost of tennis equipment has also increased, and the "initial cost" has become a hurdle for more and more people who want to start playing tennis.

We believe that by offering rackets that maintain quality while being affordably priced, we can encourage that first step of "maybe I'll give it a try."

■ Sold out in 2 hours on Makuake. The big hit racket is back.

The base of this product is a model that was previously pre-sold on "Makuake" and achieved an astonishing 4996% of its target.

The exquisite design, jointly developed by Japan's largest tennis school and a top manufacturer, with a weight of "270 grams" that is easy for beginners to handle, remains unchanged. This time, it has been renewed with two color options, navy and beige, to better blend with everyday fashion and style.

■ Developer's Comment

"If I had a design I liked, lessons would be even more fun." A casual conversation with a school member was the origin of this development.

While improving tennis skills is important, the excitement of heading to the court with your favorite gear is also a crucial element of sports. We've combined functionality that allows even beginners to hit well with coloring that blends into everyday life. We hope this racket will be picked up by those who want to enjoy tennis in their own unique style.
