Product Information

Full details

This guide is for young tennis players aged 8-9 transitioning to the full-size court, and their coaches. The HEAD Stage 2 Orange tennis balls are designed to slow down the game and make it easier for kids to learn and enjoy tennis. A key benefit is the reduced speed, which gives children more time to react and improve their technique. However, these balls are only suitable for the mid-size orange court.
