Quick Note from Coach

 Over the course of my 30+ years in tennis—as both a player and coach—I’ve witnessed firsthand the incredible evolution of racquet technology. What began with basic aluminum frames has progressed through graphite and now into advanced carbon fiber constructions, with continual innovation shaping the game.

To help simplify the racquet selection process, I’ve put together my top recommendations by skill level. These suggestions are based on extensive firsthand experience—I’ve personally tested every racquet on this list and own the majority of them.

That said, I always encourage players to try a racquet on court before making a significant investment, especially with prices often exceeding $200.

If you’re looking for more personalized advice beyond the list, feel free to reach out via message or text—I'm happy to help.

YONEX | BABOLAT | DIADEM

RACQUETS

ADVANCED PLAYERS - 12 & Older

Yonex Ezone 98, 98L, 100, 100L


Yonex Percept 98, 100


Yonex VCore 98, 100


I like all the Yonex Racquets but commonly play with an Ezone (Tour or 98).


JUNIOR RACQUETS - 11 & Younger

Additional consideration for younger players are the 26" racquets Yonex has available - check them out by clicking this link.


Babolat

$199 & Up

INTERMEDIATE TO ADVANCED PLAYERS - ALL AGES


Pure Drive or Pure Drive Lite

Pure Aero


I have a Pure Aero and the power and stability are remarkable.  Great racquets overall for all types of play and styles.


GRIP SIZES 

12 & Under - Grip Size range 4" to 4-1/4"14 & Over - Grip Size range 4-1/4" and up 



Wilson Blade

$199 & Up

ADVANCED PLAYERS - ALL AGES


Blade - all sizes (25", 26", 27")


In 2025 I picked up an 8th Generation Blade and have loved it.  It is maneuvarable, accurate and has good service response for my swing speed and styles.


The 9th Generation is on my hit-list as I'd like to move to it around Christmas (hint, hint).


GRIP SIZES

BAGS & GEAR

Backpacks, T-Shirts & Grip - winning combo!

Backpack Racquet Bags

$79 & Up

These type of tennis backpacks are value packed - from racquet specific storage to shoe and wet-item storage - they have it all.  


Babolat is shown, but other brands include Head, Wilson & Yonex.

Shirts & Shorts

$24 & Up

Playing great AND looking great - well, it's always been my strategy!


I always encourage parents to dress their kiddos for comfort , and having breathable and proper fitting clothing for tennis is key.


Pro Tip:  Always buy shorts/tennis skirts with pockets for tennis for match-play.

Grip

$6 & Up

The racquet is an extension of the hand/arm/body - the connection point needs to be dry, comfortable and reliable - I've used Yonex brand grips now for the past 6 months .


Other brands I recommend:  Diadem, Head or Wilson.

We will publish our 2023 Christmas Gift Ideas starting in October!
