Why players come to Kal

Kal coaches tennis, so he knows what a racket should feel like on court. Every racket is strung on a professional machine, to the tension you ask for, and most are ready within 24 hours.

He strings tennis, badminton, squash and racketball rackets, fits grips and grommets, and matches rackets so a spare plays exactly like your favourite.
