Racket Group

Since ultimately the combination of weight and balance largely determines the playing characteristics of a tennis racket, we have simplified the search process by categorising all rackets into 5 groups:

1. Light

Lightweight & High balance

In group 1, you will find rackets that are lightweight and have a high balance. These rackets assist the player with a shorter swing in maximising ball speed and achieving depth in shots. They often feature a larger head and wider frame to contribute to ease of play.

2. Light-Average

Lighter weight & Higher balance

In group 2, you will find rackets that are lighter in weight with a higher balance. These rackets are very manoeuvrable due to their lighter weight. A higher balance allows the player to generate ball speed easily and achieve depth in shots.

3. Average

Average weight & Average balance

In group 3, you will find rackets that have a medium weight and balance. These rackets offer a combination of power and control.

Rackets Group 3

4. Average-Heavy

Higher weight & Lower balance

In group 4, you will find rackets that have a heavier weight and lower balance. These rackets provide more control over their power, assuming that the player, through a long swing and good timing, generates the ball speed themselves.

Rackets Group 4

5. Heavy

Heavyweight & Lower balance

In group 5, you will find rackets that are heavy-weight and have a low balance. These rackets offer maximum control over their power, assuming that the player generates the ball speed themselves through a long swing and good timing.
