Designed For Children

While developing their racquets for children, the experts at Babolat teamed up with the Laboratoire Interuniversitaire de Biologie et Motricité in Lyon to measure and evaluate the needs of young tennis players. The Drive Junior 24 benefited from this research: lightweight (220 g) and extremely easy to handle, its grip size (000) allows children to learn the right techniques at an early age.

Easy Power

The Drive Junior 24 racquet comes with an excellent combination of power and manoeuvrability. Its frame is lightweight (220 g) and easy to handle thanks to a mix of graphite and aluminum, as well as extremely impact-resistant. Its open 16/17 string pattern enhances the trampoline effect and allows for powerful strokes.

Your little champion will gain confidence and quickly master the game.

Comfort

When it comes to having fun while hitting shots, comfort is an essential element - especially for children who are still learning. An open 16/17 string pattern and a soft 120-gauge string reduce vibrations, thereby protecting the joints of young players as they develop.
