MANTIS announced Official Event Ball & Racket Partner

Added on: September 9, 2011

Exciting new UK Tennis Brand MANTIS has been chosen as the Official Tennis Ball and Racket Partner for the prestigious AEGON Masters Tennis Tournament in only their first full year in the market.

As part of a multi-year deal, MANTIS TOUR Tennis Balls will be used exclusively throughout the tournament which is the season-finale to the ATP Champions Tour, and features a number of the game’s most famous players and past Grand Slam Champions.

Martin Aldridge, founder of MANTIS Sport International, is delighted to be a partner for this high-profile Event; “The AEGON Masters is a major highlight of the tennis calendar in the UK and we are delighted our balls will be at the heart of the tournament. The MANTIS TOUR, which was only released this year, has been extremely well received and we are all looking forward to watching the legends of our game playing with them at the Royal Albert Hall”.

“Despite being a relatively new brand to the tennis market we have very quickly established ourselves internationally and have had a fantastic response to all our products. Our philosophy at MANTIS is to deliver exceptional quality products at vastly superior prices and the AEGON MASTERS will be a great arena for us to showcase all of our product range from rackets to balls, grips to bags and really engage with the tennis public.”

Charlie Grave, Head of Tennis Sponsorship at IMG UK, said; “All professionals, whatever sport, want to play with the best equipment available and the tennis stars at the AEGON MASTERS are no different.

“Choosing the right tennis ball partner is a vital component of any tournament and we are delighted to have MANTIS supplying the balls for this year’s showpiece.

“We look forward to working closely with them over the next few years.”
