    Contact: Peter Francesconi [email protected] 203-263-5243 FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE Tennis Participation in the U.S. Grows To 17.9 Million Players Despite a slight decline in key ‘core’ player category, the latest research shows 1% growth overall, with another 14 million Americans showing an interest in playing. HILTON HEAD ISLAND, SC (July 27, 2015) — The latest research into the sport of tennis in the U.S. shows that overall tennis participation rose 1% to 17.9 million players, according to the Tennis Industry Association (TIA). The data also show growth in the number of youth tennis players, and indicate more than 14 million Americans, while not tennis players currently, express an interest in playing the sport. But the research, which is part of the TIA’s annual “State of the Industry” and based on year-end numbers from 2014, also indicates the tennis industry faces a number of challenges, including a slightly lower “core player” participation level along with an aging base of core players. In terms of overall participation, there are 17.9 million tennis players in the U.S., up 1% from 2013, according to data from the Physical Activity Council (PAC) 2015 Participation Study, the largest single- source independent sports participation project in the U.S. Core tennis players, who play 10 or more times a year, dipped 1% to 9.91 million in 2014. Core tennis players account for an estimated 90% of total expenditures in the sport. Also, the percentage of adult core players in the 18-to-24 age segment dropped nearly 3%, while core players ages 55-plus increased 1%.

Linda Glassel's comments are a snapshot look at what Prince Sports faces in the changing world of tennis in the 21st century. Prince Sports is a racquet sports company whose portfolio of brands includes Prince (tennis, squash, and badminton), Ektelon (racquetball), and Viking (platform/paddle tennis). Its complete line of tennis products alone is astounding: more than 150 racquet models; more than 50 tennis strings; over 50 footwear models; and countless types of bags, apparel, and other accessories. Prince prides itself on its history of innovation in tennis—including inventing the first “oversize” and “longbody” racquets, the first “synthetic gut” tennis string, and the first “Natural Foot Shape” tennis shoe. Its challenge today is to continue to innovate to meet the needs of all levels of tennis players. Page 244 “One favorable thing for Prince these days is the dramatic growth in tennis participation—higher than it's been in many years,” says Nick Skally (center in the photo below), senior marketing manager. A recent study by the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association confirms this point: Tennis participation in the United States was up 43 percent—the fastest-growing traditional individual sport in the country. TAMING TECHNOLOGY TO MEET PLAYERS' NEEDS Every tennis player wants the same thing: to play better. But they don't all have the same skills, or the same ability to swing a racquet fast.
