Prince Sports, Inc. is an American tennis/badminton/squash equipment manufacturer. It started in 1970 as the manufacturer of tennis ball machines, and went on to manufacture racquets. Prince became widely known as the maker of the first oversize racquet head and most recently the inventor of O3 racquet technology. Prince then moved into the manufacture of clothing and footwear, and diversified to provide products for other racquet sports.
