Courtesy, noun

Behavior marked by polished manners or respect for others : courteous behavior

Courtesy was a concept before it was a brand. Before racket sports like tennis were played in stadiums, filled with tens of thousands of onlookers, by tennis professionals competing for trophies and millions in prize money, racket sports were played for pleasure with etiquette. Tennis was a lady’s and gentlemen's game played between two or four people (or three for those of you who are Canadian). 

We grew up playing tennis, padel, squash, badminton and many more racket sports for the love of the game, and we respected and loved all the others who formed the community we cherished most — the racket sports community. 

Despite the global popularity of racket sports like tennis, racket sports apparel has never been prioritized in the activewear market. Actually, for any of the top sportswear brands, it’s more of an afterthought, despite the status of tennis as one of top five most loved sports in the world and despite the growing popularity of new arrivals like padel and pickleball. 

Courtesy was created for the racket sports community. For those of you who love to compete with courtesy and who want to embody your passion for the game both on and off the court. Courtesy, the brand,  embodies the core values of all racket sports: competition, passion and respect for your opponent. 

Courtesy is a bespoke, premium racket sports brand with a proprietary approach to apparel design, created to honor and preserve the rich culture of racket sports and dedicated to athletes with a need for refined, elegant and timeless sporting attire. 

For a slice of competition,  passion and respect, join the revolution, l0ve racket sports, and compete with Courtesy.
