Perfect for beginners

The unpressurised HEAD STAGE 1 GREEN is the perfect ball for children between 9 and 10 and adult beginners who are preparing for the transition to the big field. It is slightly softer, larger and only 25% slower than a normal tennis ball and helps children to control their game and their strokes. Developed together with coaches and children, the STAGE 1 GREEN is perfect for children and beginners who are learning to play on the big court. The ball is part of HEAD’s STAGE programme, a unique training programme that helps young players learn the sport the right way from the start. The programme was developed as part of the “Tennis Play and Stay!” Campaign of the International Tennis Federation (ITF).

Highlights:

• 25% slower: More control and longer rallies for better learning
• Optimised bounce behaviour: Perfect for technique training on midcourt
• Ideal for beginners: Supports the development of stroke technique and understanding of the game
