ABSTRACT:
In a racquet, in particular, a tennis racquet, which incorporates a frame, an open or closed heart piece, and a shaft (2) that is joined to the heart piece, with the frame, heart piece and shaft being formed in one piece or connected releasably to each other, the grip (1) that is formed as a one-piece sleeve can be slid onto the shaft. The inside profile of the cross section of the grip (1) and the outside profile of the cross section of the shaft (2) incorporate longitudinal shape-locking and interacting supporting surfaces. The spacing between the supporting surfaces on the shaft (2) and the supporting surfaces of the grip (1) tapers in a wedge shape towards the unattached end (11) of the shaft (2). A removable distance piece (3) that prevents the grip (1) being slid axially into the mated position is releasably connected to the end (11) of the shaft. With the distance piece (3) installed on the shaft, the racquet can be tested with various grips (1). After removal of the distance piece (3) the grip is slid completely onto the shaft (2) and is then joined to the shaft so that, for all practical purposes, it cannot be released from the shaft.
