Our designers developed this racket for young, beginning tennis players who are between 100 and 107 cm in height.
The TR130 JR was redesigned with six concepts, developed in conjunction with trainers and kids, to help your child get better from their very first swing.
It includes six concepts to make gripping, positioning and swinging easier.
Handling
Lightweight (188 g), manoeuvrable racket for your first rallies.
Forgiveness
The head size (535 cm²) mitigates centring errors.
TECHNICAL INFORMATIONS
HAND PLACEMENT
Two zones on the handle indicate the correct hand positioning:
- The dominant hand should grip the handle on the lower, unmarked area
- The second hand - especially for backhands - should be positioned in the striated area.
This ensures good power and stability when hitting the ball.
RACKET GRIP
With its three coloured markings on the handle, the TR130 JR helps kids place their hands in the right position for forehands, backhands and serves.
Kids should be able to see:
- the yellow marking when hitting a forehand
- the white marking when serving
- the grey marking when hitting a backhand
This keeps the racket head in the right place when hitting the ball and ensures the ball is hit properly.
THE RIGHT STANCE
When your child receives the ball, they should hold the racket so they can see the face of the person on the frame.
Their legs should be slightly apart and knees bent in what is called a "CHAMPION'S STANCE" to be in the right position to hit the ball.
SECOND HAND PLACEMENT
When setting up to hit the ball, the second hand plays a key role in stabilising the racket, ensuring the right movement and keeping the racket's head high and ready to hit.
The hand should be placed on the throat of the racket.
We put visual and textured markings on the grip to make this easier.
PREPARING AND FINISHING THE SWING
To keep your swing loose and relaxed, we put a small figure at the end of the racket.
At the beginning of the swing, the figure should "watch" the ball coming.
At the end of the swing, it should also "watch" the ball go.
This forces your child to use correct technique throughout and to use a correct, loose, relaxed swing.
SWEET SPOT
We put a white ball-shaped marking over the sweet spot of the strings.
By aiming to hit the ball with this marking, your child focuses on centring the ball and using correct racket positioning.
This ensures they hit the ball in the most effective and comfortable way. In fact, hitting with the centre of the racket's head will produce the most powerful, accurate hits with little vibration.
