The pressureless HEAD STAGE 2 ORANGE ball is an ideal choice for children between 8 and 9 years who are transitioning to the bigger court. It is softer, and 50% slower than a standard tennis ball, which increases the reaction time and makes hitting the ball a lot easier. Designed in collaboration with coaches and young players, the HEAD Stage 2 ORANGE is perfect for the ITF´s mid orange court (18m x 6,4-8,23m). It is part of the STAGE Program, a unique initiative created to help young players develop their skills, in partnership with the International Tennis Federation’s “Tennis Play and Stay!” campaign.”
