It is important to have the right size racquet for safety, enjoyment, and skill development. Just as baseball bats and soccer balls are smaller for kids, so are tennis racquets. The Brandon Tennis Association has racquets for use in the tennis building if you have that need.

If you’re just starting out or you’re introducing your kids to the sport, there are a variety of beginner tennis balls that are specially designed for slower play. The fastest tennis balls may suit the pros, but slower-moving foam tennis balls are great for teaching and training, or you could try out one of three stages of beginner balls:
Stage 3 (Red): These beginner balls are created for young children (typically 10 years or younger) to help build skills, develop proper movement, fine-tune coordination, and boost confidence. Approved for play on a 36-foot court format.
Stage 2 (Orange): These are reduced flight balls and are great for use on reduced length 60-foot courts. While more advanced than Stage 3, these will still slow down the game.
Stage 1 (Green): The last stage before a tournament tennis ball, these feature a slightly lower bounce and help beginners use proper technique. Typically used on a full-size 78-foot length tennis court.
