Wilson Team 6 Racquet Bag in green for tennis tournaments in India

Winter tournament season: which tennis bag should you carry?

From November to February, India's tennis calendar fills with district, state and academy tournaments, and a bag that holds two rackets, shoes and a change of clothes makes match days far easier. Four options are in stock: the Solinco Tour Backpack at ₹4,999, the Wilson Team Tennis Racquet Backpack at ₹6,019, the Wilson Team 6 Racquet Bag at ₹6,299 and the Head Pro Tennis Racquet Backpack at ₹6,879.

What a tournament bag needs

Winter tournaments mean extra layers: a jacket, a towel, spare socks and shirts, and often two or three racquets. Look for a shoe compartment, a thermal or large pocket for wet gear, and padded straps. For a deeper look at features, see our tennis bag buying guide.

Solinco Tour Backpack (₹4,999)

The Solinco is described as compact and functional for players who travel light: two main compartments (up to 2 racquets in one and accessories in the other) and dual side pockets for water bottles and loose balls. It is the cheapest option and best for junior and club players with modest gear.

Wilson Team Tennis Racquet Backpack (₹6,019)

A familiar Wilson design aimed at the modern player. At ₹6,019, it is a middle option for those who want brand reliability. Check capacity on the product page against how many racquets you carry.

Wilson Team 6 Racquet Bag (₹6,299)

This one has 6-racquet capacity across two main compartments, a dedicated shoe compartment, multiple accessory pockets, padded backpack straps and a grab handle. It suits academy players or anyone who brings spare racquets to every match. Colourways are listed separately; this guide links the green version.

Head Pro Tennis Racquet Backpack (₹6,879)

Head's backpack is described as engineered for serious players, with ample storage and the brand's durability. It is the most expensive here at ₹6,879, so choose it if you prefer Head's layout, since the specifications overlap with the Wilson options.

Quick picks

  • Light kit, one or two racquets: Solinco Tour Backpack.
  • Everyday and tournaments: Wilson Team Backpack.
  • Spare racquets and long days: Wilson Team 6 Racquet Bag.
  • Prefer Head: Head Pro Backpack.

Match-day packing list for winter

  • Two racquets strung at the tension you like.
  • Overgrips and a dry towel.
  • Spare socks and shirt, plus a warm layer for between matches.
  • Fresh balls if the event does not supply them.
  • Water, electrolytes and snacks.

Cold mornings make balls feel slower; our winter tennis guide explains how to adjust. For bags that also work at the gym, see sports backpacks for court, gym and travel.

Looking after your bag

Empty the bag after every tournament, air the shoe compartment, and wipe the exterior with a damp cloth. Damp towels left inside cause odour and mildew within a day or two. Check zips and stitching before a long trip, since a broken strap on the way to a final is the last thing you want. A bag that is easy to carry also protects your back through a long tournament week.

Racquet protection in the bag

Even a padded bag cannot stop two frames from rubbing together. Use separate compartments where available, and consider a thin racquet cover for a frame you value. Keep strings away from sharp objects and extremes of heat.
