There are quite a few, to say the least. But we'll take you through the most common ones here so that your hand is happy!
The most commonly used brand of these are Yonex in there Yonex Super Grap for the Polyurethane type and the Yonex Towel Grip.
BUT of course there’s also other brands out there including the Volant essential grips, which come in a pack of 10 so you’ll never run out!
Anyway, unless you have incredibly sweaty hands or a seasoned professional, you may be better suited to the typical rubbery feel of Polyurethane. Of course, do try the towel grip as well if you think it is more suited to your needs!
The key difference and you can probably tell is the material used for both of these.
Polyurethane grips are a highly tacky/rubbery grip, that does alright at absorbing sweat too. It’s lighter than towel grips are and are relatively cheap.
Towel grip is essentially made of cotton and does better at soaking up all that sweat but its weight can have an impact on your game if you’re used to the lightweight of polyurethane grips. Some players also prefer to the feeling of the towel instead of rubbery PU.

Towel grips are deemed to be beneficial for a more aggressive game but I’ve certainly never felt that way about them!
Anyway, these are the two grip types that you can consider and why you’d opt for either of them!
Now that you know how to grip your badminton racket, what if you don't have any grips?!
