Choosing the right junior tennis racquet is very important for your child. As a general principle, a junior should use as long a racquet as she can comfortably handle. Proper junior tennis racquet sizing will help to teach and develop your childs proper tennis strokes and techniques. The right sized junior tennis racquet is very important. A racquet that is too small can lead to both tennis elbow and to improper tennis strokes which will hurt the development of your childs game. Depending upon the childs growth factor, the transition from junior tennis racquet to adult racquet varies.

Here are some basic guidelines for junior tennis racquets. If a 6-year-old is the size of an average 8-year-old, choose a junior tennis racquet for an 8-year-old. If they are very strong, then move up one or two sizes in racquets if possible. The current crop of junior tennis racquets are very light so that no child should have any problems with weight being an issue. Does the junior have any playing experience? The following assumes that this is a beginner. A child who has experience playing tennis will probably need a junior tennis racquet one or two sizes larger than what is indicated on the chart.

Age: Junior Tennis Racquets Length

0-4: 19"
4-5: 21"
6-7: 23"
8-10: 25"
10-12: 26"
12 up: adult size

If you are stuck between two sizes, go with the bigger one.

If you are making the transition to an adult racquet from a junior tennis racquet, go with the standard 27 inch adult sized regular length racquet.

Juniors can outgrow racquets quickly, but it helps a lot that junior racquets tend to be inexpensive. Very nice junior tennis racquets can be had for anywhere roughly $15 to $50. Hit the strings with the palm of your hand to see if it feels solid to you. If the racquet feels to flexible or too light, avoid it.

Tennis is such a great game and the earlier that you start you junior off playing, the better they will be and the more fun that they will have. Your children will have and develop a lifetime of tennis enjoyment
