The Racket: a free online word search

Tennis racket word search, free to play online without an account or an app, where the hidden words run from strings to that satisfying pop of a fresh can.

About The Racket

A tennis racket is a precisely engineered thing, the taut strings, the wrapped grip, the curve of the throat rising into the head. Racket frames were once carved entirely from wood; today they are shaped from graphite and composite materials that put more power and feel into every swing. The pressurized ball can, sealed tight to keep that lively bounce, is one of the sport's most satisfying small rituals to open.

How to play

  1. 1
    Find a word.Tap its first letter, then tap along to its last. The trail fills in and finishes itself when it spells a word. Or press the first letter and drag.
  2. 2
    Words run in straight lines.Across and down, and on the harder difficulties diagonally and backwards.
  3. 3
    It marks itself.Each word you find takes on its own soft colour on the grid and is crossed off the list.
  4. 4
    Choose a difficulty.Relaxed, Classic or Challenging set those directions and how much the word list helps, never the grid size. Tap the A buttons at the top to enlarge the letters, or pinch the grid.
