Recreational Tennis Rackets for Junior/Youth

The US Open Jr is an excellent option for any young junior player looking to get into the sport, featuring four different sizes depending on age, size, and skill level. These rackets are used at many junior events, backed by the heritage and support of the USTA. The racket's head size refers to the total surface area of the string bed, measured in square inches or centimeters. A larger head size provides the player with more power and forgiveness, while a smaller head size offers more precision and control.

The weight of a racket is another crucial factor. A heavier racket brings more power and stability through the swing, absorbing more shock and providing players with better feel for the ball. This is ideal for players with long, fast strokes who prefer hitting flatter balls with pace and depth. On the other hand, a lighter racket enhances maneuverability and provides easier access to spin, making it optimal for handling volleys around the net, spinning lobs into play, and generating better angles that dip inside the lines.

The balance of a racket, measured in points, indicates the distribution of weight within the racket. This can be categorized as head-light (HL), even balance (EB), or head-heavy (HH). Head-light rackets have more mass in the handle, head-heavy rackets have more mass in the hoop, and evenly balanced rackets have even mass distribution throughout.

The Wilson US Open 25 Junior/Youth Recreational Tennis Racket is a lightweight and powerful option, featuring a vibrant and colorful frame that stands out on the court. The AirLite Alloy construction creates a lightweight frame with power and durability, and the racket is approved for 10-and-under tennis. It comes pre-strung, ready for easy swinging and enjoyment on the court.
