Wimbledon 2024 – Top 5 Products for the Tennis Court

That time of year is never too far away. With this year's Wimbledon Championships, the country will once again go tennis mad, with strawberries, cream and champagne on the agenda. While the weather might try its best to spoil proceedings, we're all set up for a hard fought tournament once again. Will the home-grown talent do it again this year, or will we have to pick our favourite based on their hairstyle once again?

Well, we can't predict the future, but we can offer some great products to help your tennis game both on and off the court. Here are our five top products for Wimbledon:

1. Aircast A60 Ankle Brace

The ankle support Andy Murray uses to combat ankle injury, the Aircast A60 Ankle Brace is a great product that helps keep you protected yet mobile on the court. The design features a stabiliser moulded at a 60 degree angle to help prevent ankle sprains, and guard against rollover. Tennis is a sport in which you're constantly having to change direction at speed, which makes you ankles vulnerable to sprains, strains and more. Knowing you can move around with confidence is hugely important to your performance, whether you're on centre court or you're down at the local park. 

2. Bauerfeind EpiPoint Tennis Elbow Support

Repeating the same movements over and over again, such as a tennis swing, might be important in maintaining your technique but can also be detrimental to your body. The Bauerfeind EpiPoint Tennis Elbow Support is a great solution to these repetitive movements. Ideal for relieving tendon pain (the cause of tennis elbow), the EpiPoint features an integral elastic pressure cushion to relieve pressure on the tendons and minimise discomfort, so you can keep hitting those booming serves, subtle slices and venomous volleys. 

3. LP Compression Sports Shorts

As you sprint, lunge and jump on the court, the muscles in your thighs and hamstrings are put to the test, leaving them at risk of strains if you can't stay fully limber. The LP Compression Sports Shorts provide constant compression to the muscles and tendons from your lower back to your quads, helping to keep the area warm and ready for action. Perfect for chilly morning sessions, these shorts are a must-have for all athletes, whether you're recovering from injury or trying to prevent one happening in the first place.

4. Ultimate Performance Wraparound Knee Brace

You can't compete in intense physical activity without putting lots of stress on your knees, but we can do everything we can to keep them supported and protected. The Ultimate Performance Wraparound Knee Brace is ideal for those wanting to maintain top levels of performance while nursing sore, weak, or arthritic knees, as it provides even compression to ensure ligaments remain as stable as possible. This brace provides a feeling of stability without limiting movement, making it ideal for regaining confidence in your knee after injury.

5. Aircast Knee Cryo Cuff and Automatic Cold Therapy IC Cooler Saver Pack

Even after keeping your knees properly supported on the court, ice therapy is the best way to relieve pain and promote the quickest recovery times. Get back on the court sooner without pain with the Aircast Knee Cryo Cuff and Automatic IC Cooler which combines a purpose-built knee ice pack cuff that conforms to the contours of the knee with a ice cooler to provide your knee with an instant and state-of-the-art ice bath. This Automatic IC version features a built-in pump, providing intermittent compression to the cuff while helping to cycle water back and forth between the cooler and the cuff.
