FAQs
Is this set suitable for indoor use?
Yes, because it includes a soft tennis ball, it is safe for indoor use in large, clear spaces like gyms or garages.
What age group is Size 3 designed for?
Size 3 is typically recommended for younger children, generally between the ages of 7 and 9, depending on height and skill.
Can I use a standard leather cricket ball with this set?
No, this set is designed for a soft tennis ball. Using a heavy leather cricket ball may cause damage to the wooden bat.
How do I clean the wooden components?
Use a slightly damp cloth to wipe away dirt. Do not submerge in water or use harsh chemicals.
Is the storage bag waterproof?
No, it is a breathable mesh bag designed to prevent mildew by allowing airflow; it is not intended to protect contents from rain.
Troubleshooting
Stumps are loose in the ground
Ensure you are using the set on soft turf or sand; if the ground is too hard, try wetting the area slightly or use a mallet to seat the stumps securely.
Bat finish feels rough after extended use
Lightly sand the affected area with fine-grit sandpaper and wipe clean to restore the smooth finish.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
Setup is straightforward: push the 40cm stumps into soft earth or sand to create your wicket, place the bail, and you are ready to play. To maintain the set, keep the equipment clean by wiping down the bat and stumps after use. Since the set is made of wood, avoid leaving it outside in the rain or excessive humidity, as this can cause the wood to expand, crack, or warp. Store the items inside the provided mesh bag in a dry, cool place to maximize longevity. Ensure the playing area is clear of obstacles before starting any match.
