Racquets Mate was started in 2008 by myself, David Munt. Before starting a Tennis, Squash and Badminton stringing service I spend 3 years coaching tennis and re-stringing rackets for the clubs I was working at.
I started stringing my own tennis rackets in 2000 and in 2002 I completed the Racquet Stringing Solutions (RSS) stringing course. In 2008 I became a member of the European Racquet Stringers Association (ERSA) and completed the United States Racquet Stringers Association Master Racquet Technician (USRSA MRT) course.
In 2009 I was part of the Apollo Leisure Official Stringing Team for the Wimbledon Championships.
This year (2010), I will be part of the Stringing Team at the AEGON INTERNATIONAL at Eastbourne for 2 days and at The Wimbledon Championships for 8 days.
