Abstract: An improved game racket is provided which includes a plurality of longitudinal and transverse strings disposed in parallel planes, and a unitary grid including a plurality of longitudinally-disposed first members disposed on a plurality of the longitudinal strings, and a plurality of transversely-disposed second members disposed on a plurality of the transverse strings so that the second members of the grid cross the first members thereof. The first and second grid members are bonded together at a plurality of crossing points so that the grid moves substantially as a unit with either the longitudinal or transverse strings of the grid when struck by a ball to increase the amount of top spin, back spin, or side spin imparted to the ball. In alternative embodiments, the grid includes either a plurality of longitudinally or transversely-disposed third members to provide an identical playing surface on either side of the racket.
