ABSTRACT:
The games racket comprises a head (1) and a shaft (2), the shaft being fitted with a separable extension module (8) bearing a hand grip. The two components (2, 8) are locked rigidly together by a wedging action. Preferably the shaft (2) is provided at its free end with legs (4, 5) defining a slot (6) which has wedge profiles (7) formed in it. The extension module (8) is push fitted over the legs (4, 5) and a locking device (12, 13) is inserted into the slot (6), the locking device having a wedging element (13) which bears against the wedge profiles (7). Various extension modules (8) can be stocked at the point of sale of the racket in order to provide rackets of differing lengths and/or grip sizes.
