What size racket should I buy my child?
Junior rackets are sized according to the height of the child.
Here are the guidelines:
- 3’ 11’’ and under = size 21 racket
- 3’ 11’’ to 4’ 6’’ = size 23 racket
- 4’ 6’’ to 5’ = size 25 or 26 racket
- 5’ and above = adult racket
Junior rackets are not designed for restringing, but can be re-gripped. Adult rackets can be restrung and re-gripped.
