About Us

We are PDHSports.com, a family run racket sports specialist based in Duffield, Derbyshire. PDHSports began trading in 1992 when professional squash player Paul Hargrave set up a restringing business and started selling rackets to supplement his squash playing income. Paul built the first PDHSports.com website himself (after a crash course in basic HTML and web design at night school) and we were one of the first racket sports retailers to sell online. We've come a long way since then, with a much more sophisticated online presence and a showroom in Derbyshire.

We are proud to be one of the few independent, specialist racket sports retailers based in the UK yet also offering worldwide delivery.

As official racket testers for Tecnifibre, HEAD and Dunlop, we test many products pre-launch and we also try to review as many of the other ranges which we sell as possible so that we can give informed advice. Our YouTube channel, with new product reviews and coaching tips, has now had over four million views.

We stock all major racket sports brands and also work with emerging brands to offer our customers fantastic choice. We secure exclusive racket deals and offer brilliant Bundles and Multibuys which you won't find anywhere else.

We don't just have an online presence. Our busy showroom in Duffield offers customers the chance to try before you buy and we love meeting our customers face to face! Many travel hundreds of miles in the search for specialist advice. 

Our unique Ten Day Racket Trial also sets us apart from the competition. First introduced in 2009, it has been a highly successful scheme which allows online customers the chance to test our products. 

Our philosophy 

We aim to offer an extensive range of squash, tennis, badminton, racketball and fitness equipment at the best prices. Selling online means that our prices are always competitive. We believe our technical expertise and our commitment to delivering superb customer service, combined with highly competitive prices, sets us apart from other racket sports retailers.
