Finding a Suitable Junior Tennis Racket
Size and Age
Depending on your child's age and height, it is important to choose a specific racket size expressed in inches. The younger and smaller your child is, the smaller the racket size in inches that will suit them, and the weight will also be lighter. Head Junior rackets range from 19 inches to 26 inches. Here is a guide to the racket sizes to consider based on age that may help you:
- Height 80 to 100 cm – Age 3 to 4 years: 17-inch racket
- Height 101 to 110 cm – Age 4 to 5 years: 19-inch racket
- Height 111 to 120 cm – Age 5 to 6 years: 21-inch racket
- Height 121 to 130 cm – Age 6 to 8 years: 23-inch racket
- Height 131 to 140 cm – Age 7 to 9 years: 24-inch racket
- Height 141 to 150 cm – Age 8 to 10 years: 25-inch racket
- Height > 150 cm – Age 11 years and older: 26-inch racket
Practice and Skill Level
Depending on how often your child practices and their skill level, you may want to prioritize certain models of junior rackets based on their materials:
- For a beginner junior, it is preferable to use an aluminum racket like the Junior Novak;
- For an advanced junior or one playing competitively, a graphite racket like the Gravity Junior;
