Multi-year global partnership secured for branded tennis practice walls.
The licensing programme for HEAD Sport continues to grow, with the brand securing a multi-year global partnership with tennis practice wall manufacturer, REBO.
The UK-based company will be developing and marketing a range of HEAD branded REBO walls across the globe.
REBO’s aim is to change the culture of tennis and football by getting more people learning and practicing playing the game against the special walls, like many of today’s top professional players.
The HEAD branded range will be free-standing with a unique angled face to give a realistic ball trajectory.
The first two walls are the HEAD Monster Speed REBO wall, aimed specifically at children, and the HEAD Laserbeam Speed REBO wall. Both will launch from April 1.
“We are thrilled that an iconic brand like HEAD has chosen to team up with REBO to support our mission,” said Adrian Hutchins, REBO ceo and founder.
“HEAD is one of the world’s leading sports manufacturers and innovators in their field, we have many shared values and cannot wait to work together to get more people playing and enjoying the sport and especially helping to change the perception of tennis being an expensive and difficult sport to learn and play and always requires a traditional court and a partner to play.”
Ottmar Barbian, evp of the racquets sports division at HEAD Sport GmbH, added: “REBO is an exciting young company with an already well established brand that produces innovative, top quality products and we see huge scope for the partnership.”
