How to Choose the Right Tennis Racquet
When selecting a tennis racquet, two key factors, weight and head size, should guide your decision.
-
Weight: Lighter racquets provide more control, while heavier racquets offer greater power and stability. Choose based on your strength and playing style.
-
Head Size: A larger head size creates a bigger sweet spot, giving more power and forgiveness on off-centre hits. Smaller head sizes offer more control and precision.
For beginners, we recommend racquets that are lighter with larger head sizes. As you progress, consider exploring intermediate or advanced racquet models that offer greater control, precision, and stability.
How to Measure the Right Tennis Racquet Size
Selecting the right racquet size involves choosing both the head size and grip size.
-
Head Size: The size of the head affects the sweet spot and power of your shots. Racquets come in a variety of head sizes, from large for power, to smaller for control.
-
Grip Size: To determine the right grip, simply measure from the middle of your palm to the tip of your ring finger. Make sure the racquet you choose has a grip that matches your measurement for optimal comfort.
What Materials Are Tennis Racquets Made From?
Modern tennis racquets are crafted from lightweight materials like graphite, carbon fibre, and aluminium. Graphite is the most common due to its lightweight nature and durability, while carbon fibre offers a premium feel with enhanced stability and power.
How Long Will Your Tennis Racquet Last?
The lifespan of your racquet depends on how often you play and how well you maintain it. Advanced players may need to replace their racquets every few years due to frequent use, while occasional players can often keep their racquets for many years if they’re properly stored and maintained.
At TennisGear, we make it easy to find the right racquet for you. Whether you're looking for more control, more power, or something in between. If you're a junior player or shopping for someone younger, we’ve got a fantastic range of junior racquets to choose from.
