Junior tennis balls Head Stage 3 Red Mesh Bag 12B
Ideal for learning beginner tennis enthusiasts aged 5-8.
The Head Stage 3 ball is definitely much softer, larger and 75% slower than standard tennis balls, giving the child more time to react and making it much easier to hit the ball. The two-tone red and yellow colour makes it easier to see. It is mainly used for play on a small ITF court measuring 11 m x 5-6 m.
Approved by ITF, the ball is part of the Head: STAGE Program.
Head: STAGE Program
Working with the ITF (International Tennis Federation) as part of the "Tennis...Play and Stay" campaign, Head has developed a new programme (Tennis Instruction Programme) – an innovative system supporting the learning of tennis. In line with the T.I.P. assumptions, a beginner should be able to serve, hit confidently and score points during the very first lesson, making it a positive and encouraging introduction to further learning. The programme supports this concept by providing rackets and balls suitable for every level of tennis learning.
