01/30/06 - Phoenix, AZ – HEAD presents the Tour Team Series, an exciting new line of attractive sport luggage for professional and amateur tennis players available in pro/specialty and sporting goods stores March 1. Six fresh designs in the Series – Tour Team Sport (SRP: $45), Tour Team Backpack (SRP: $40), Tour Team Combi (SRP: $50), Tour Team SuperCombi (SRP: $60), Tour Team Tennis (SRP: $75) and Tour Team Travel (SRP: $90) – offer players the highest quality materials in great shapes and cuts that make a statement on any court.

HEAD’s Tour Team Series bags boast a number of special features: A new shoulder strap system on the Tour Team Combi and SuperCombi bags creates superior comfort, and all bag models are equipped with new Climate Control Technology, a thermal foil that helps to protect the contents of the pocket from extreme temperatures, thereby reducing the risk of damage. Additionally, the Combi and SuperCombi bags offer a pocket for MP3 players, a specially-designed wet/shoe storage compartment, and the Tour Team Travel bag is extremely easy to tote with its new retractable telescopic handle. The enlarged HEAD logo and eye-catching color combinations make the 2006 Tour Team Series fashionable, as well as functional.

No matter how much tennis gear, the Tour Team series has a bag to accommodate. The Tour Team SuperCombi carries up to six racquets and the Tour Team Combi can carry up to three racquets. The new Tour Team Series bags will be used by HEAD partners such as Marat Safin, Andre Agassi, Gustavo Kuerten, Rainer Schüttler, Florian Mayer, and rising stars Gael Monfils, Donald Young and Paul-Henry Mathieu.
