REBO, UK manufacturer of a range of high quality tennis practice walls and leading global sports brand HEAD Sport GmbH today announced a multi-year global licensing partnership.

The agreement allows REBO to develop and market a range of HEAD branded REBO walls across the globe as it continues in its bid to change the culture of tennis and soccer by getting more people learning, practicing playing the game like so many of today’s top professional players did, against practice walls.

Like all REBO walls, the HEAD branded range will be free-standing with a unique angled face to give a realistic ball trajectory, making the products ideal for any age and ability.

REBO is proud to unveil the first two walls in the HEAD REBO range - the ‘HEAD Monster Speed REBO wall’ aimed specifically at kids and the ‘HEAD Laserbeam Speed REBO wall’ - both inflatable REBO walls that are transported in a bag and ready to use in minutes (images attached). Designed to learn, practice and play tennis, soccer and most ball sports, it is ideal for non-traditional spaces and indoor activity, the walls are an easy way to bring the sport into areas where you might not normally find a court, coach or club.

“We are thrilled that an iconic brand like HEAD has chosen to team up with REBO to support our mission,” said Adrian Hutchins, REBO CEO & Founder. “HEAD is one of the world’s leading sports manufacturers and innovators in their field, we have many shared values and cannot wait to work together to get more people playing and enjoying the sport and especially helping to change the perception of tennis being an expensive and difficult sport to learn and play and always requires a traditional court and a partner to play.”

“REBO is an exciting young company with an already well established brand that produces innovative, top quality products and we see huge scope for the partnership” said Ottmar Barbian, Executive Vice President-Racquets Sports Division at HEAD Sport GmbH “We’re delighted to team up with REBO at this exciting stage in the company’s evolution and are looking forward to working together to provide a bespoke product that sits perfectly alongside our current tennis offering.”

The new range of HEAD REBO walls will be available to purchase from 1st April 2017 directly from REBO and in due course via a network of international distributors.
