On junior tennis sponsorship

On publishes no tennis sponsorship application. Since it entered tennis in 2023, it has signed a run of juniors aged 15 to 17, including Joao Fonseca, Julia Stusek, Julieta Pareja and Henry Bernet. Each had top junior results first, such as Les Petits As or junior Grand Slam titles.

How On finds and signs juniors

  • On signed Iga Swiatek and Ben Shelton in March 2023 as its first tennis stars; Fonseca was signed in 2023 as well (Tennis.com says at 17). [3]
  • On's releases describe Yeri Hong (KOR) and Henry Bernet (SUI) as 'emerging junior talents' on its roster. [1]
