Accessory Maintenance: What to Replace and When
A simple replacement schedule so nothing sneaks up on you mid-season.
Small, cheap accessories quietly wear out faster than the paddle itself — here’s a realistic replacement rhythm to keep your setup performing.
| Item | Replace When |
|---|---|
| Overgrip | Every 3-6 weeks of regular play, or once tackiness noticeably fades |
| Edge guard | When it’s visibly worn through or lifting at the edges |
| Balls | When they crack, go out of round, or lose bounce consistency |
| Court shoes | Every 6-12 months of regular play, or once outsole tread visibly flattens |
| Paddle itself | See our full signs-you-need-a-new-paddle guide for the detailed version |
A SIMPLE HABIT
Do a quick 30-second gear check before your first session each week — grip tackiness, ball condition, shoe tread. It catches small issues before they become mid-game problems.
