Abstract
An elongated band with a T-shaped cross section is bent into the form of an ellipse and is attached to a handle to form a tennis racquet frame of conventional proportions. The stem of the T faces inwardly along the periphery of the ellipse. Conventional racquet string is wrapped around the elliptical portion of the band to form two parallel faces, each face having the form of a flat rectangular grid.
