About us
About Racquet Inc
Racquet Inc is a small, family-run gift company based in Dayton, Ohio. We were founded in 2016 around a simple idea: that the players in your life deserve gifts that match the personality of their sport — not generic logo merch, and not the same dampener that came free in a starter racquet bag. Today we design and sell several hundred tennis, pickleball, and golf gifts and accessories for players of every level, from junior campers to country-club regulars to drop-in open-play retirees.
What we make
Our catalog is built around two ideas: the small, daily-use accessories that make playing more fun, and the gift-ready pieces that turn a birthday card, retirement party, Mother's Day basket, or holiday stocking into something a tennis or pickleball player will actually keep.
Tennis gifts and accessories
We're best known for our tennis vibration dampener lines — including our food-themed Delicious Dampeners (Coffee Cup, Iced Coffee, Cupcake, Watermelon, Pretzel, and dozens more) and our character-themed Mythical Dampeners (Cyclops, Medusa, Zeus, Yeti, Vampire, and others). Our tennis catalog also includes tennis bag tags, tennis racquet keychains, tennis ball keychains (PVC, 3D, leather, and furry plush), tennis ball bracelets, sterling silver tennis racquet earrings (silver, gold, and rose gold), tennis racquet scrunchies, tennis hair pins, tennis nail kits, tennis ball ice packs, tennis sticker sheets, tennis racquet butt cap stickers, tennis court mouse pads, tennis sunglasses cases, tennis card holders, tennis cooler totes, tennis carryall totes, tennis laptop sleeves, tennis ball erasers, tennis racquet-shaped pens, tennis lanyards, tennis fridge magnets, and microfiber tennis court towels. For the kitchen, we offer tennis dish towels, tennis pot holders, tennis oven mitts, tennis coffee mugs, tennis cocktail napkins, tennis cocktail picks, tennis stirrer sticks, and tennis-ball USB wall adapters.
Pickleball gifts and accessories
Our pickleball catalog mirrors the tennis line: pickleball bag tags, pickleball keychains (flat, 3D, and leather), pickleball paddle earrings in sterling silver and rose gold, pickleball bracelets, pickleball scrunchies, pickleball hair pins, pickleball nail kits, pickleball ice packs, pickleball sticker sheets, pickleball court mouse pads, pickleball wine bottle totes, pickleball cocktail napkins, pickleball cocktail picks, pickleball stirrer sticks, pickleball coffee mugs, pickleball notepads, pickleball USB adapter plugs, pickleball shoe charms for Crocs, and our Pickleball Paddle Cover Sleeves in five neoprene-padded designs (Wild Roar, Pickle Pop, Tropic Topspin, Bloom Smash, and High Voltage).
Golf gifts
Our golf line includes golf bag tags (Golf Balls, 19th Hole, Magenta Golf Cart, Navy Blue Golf Cart), golf ball cocktail picks, golf ball magnets, and golf-themed Crocs shoe charms in blue and pink.
Handmade upcycled tennis gifts
A small portion of our catalog is genuinely handmade and one-of-a-kind: our Antique Tennis Racquet Wine Bottle Openers and Antique Tennis Racquet Bottle Stoppers are each crafted from real upcycled vintage wooden tennis racquets — the kind that hung on garage walls for forty years before finding their way back into play. Our Vintage Upcycled Vertical Bi-Fold Wallets are built from authentic antique wooden tennis racquet head covers, with full-grain leather interior card slots. Because each starting racquet is unique, no two pieces in this line are identical.
Apparel and footwear accessories
We carry men's tennis dress socks, men's smashing socks for tennis, pickleball, and golf, women's low-cut tennis socks and pickleball socks in five colors each, LOVE Pickleball t-shirts in heathered cantaloupe, cassis, and neo mint, and snap-in shoe charms for Crocs and clog-style shoes in tennis, pickleball, and golf themes.
Gift sets
For bigger occasions, we assemble curated gift bundles, including: The Tennis Lover's Kitchen Gift Set (in Clear Skies Blue, Night Match Blue, and Grass Court Green), The Tennis Beer Lover's Gift Set, The Tennis Gentleman's Gift Set, The Tennis Weekender, The Tennis Lover's After Hours Gift Set, The Pickleball Lover's Gift Set, The Pickleball Weekender, The Everyday Pickleballer Gift Set, and The Golfer's 19th Hole Gift Set — pre-curated four-to-six-piece sets at gift-friendly price points.
Who we sell to
Most of our orders come from individual buyers shopping for a tennis-playing friend, parent, partner, child, coach, or doubles partner. We also work with country clubs, racquet clubs, tennis facilities, pickleball venues, golf courses, tournament organizers, junior camps, and corporate teams on wholesale orders, tournament favors, league prizes, and team gifting.

If you'd like to discuss wholesale pricing, tournament prize-table orders, member-guest weekend favors, league-night gifts, or corporate gifting, email us at gifts@racquetinc.com. We're happy to talk through quantities, lead times, and design options.
