Packhorse Flight Cases have long been suppliers of sports equipment cases and were pleased when Liam Nolan called for advice on transporting his tennis equipment round the world.

Liam is Technical Director of the UK Racket Stringers Association and is also the guy who travels the globe with the GB Davis Cup Tennis Team as the Professional Stringer for Team GB.



Originally Liam had contacted Packhorse with a standard off the shelf hard case in mind but when that proved to be not a good option he had a custom flight case made.  Liam was so pleased with the service and the case quality of his tennis equipment case he offered to re-string our Sam's racket for him, assuring him (with wink to the other lads) it would improve Sam's playing ability - mmmmmm!

If you fancy following in Liam's shoes you can check out the UK Racket Stringers Association here.

You can see the Davis Cup Tennis Team in action in the UK at Eastbourne in July where they play their Europe/Africa Zone match against Turkey.

In the meantime we wish Liam safe travel and every success to the GB Davis Cup Tennis Team at future tournaments.

The Welsh metal-core band Bullet For My Valentine have spent most of the past two years taking over the world with massive U.K., European, U.S. and worldwide tours and Packhorse have had the ongoing pleasure over the years of designing and supplying their flight cases.

It got me thinking back to the year when the Sex Pistols arrived, I remember the 100 Club in Oxford St, London, the home of early punk and where I spent many a Tuesday 'Punk' night courtesy of Ron Watts the promoter.

The first time I meet Malcolm was when Packhorse were asked to produce cases for the Sex Pistols backline and instruments in advance of their first USA tour. When I got down to rehearsals I was presented with a pile of equipment, well I had never seen anything like it. 'We need a case for this to start with' pointing towards what appeared to me to be a totally trashed Marshall 4 x 12 cab complete with split and ripped speaker cones, not the condition of the equipment we normally cased. But what do I know, this was the equipment that produced 'their' sound which went on to become known world wide!

The Sex Pistols and Malcolm had arrived, bringing a new and fresh era in music to the fore that went on to produce bands with refreshing and exciting sounds. I remember stencilling customers names like The Buzzcocks, The Clash, The Damned, Generation X, The Jam, Siouxsie & The Banshees and The Stranglers to name but a few, onto flight cases which was then often followed by good nights out, great music and fun times, which I best not elaborate on except to say Sex, Drugs and Rock ‘n’ Roll.

RIP Malcolm and thanks for the fun memories, the world owes you one.
