Simply so, how do you size a tennis racket for a child?
How to measure a kid’s tennis racket
- Have your child stand up straight.
- Stand the racket — handle upwards — next to their foot on their playing side (e.g. right foot if they’re right handed)
- Your child should be able to comfortably hold the tip of the handle with their fingers (no leaning over or stretching!)
Beside above, what size tennis racket should a 12 year old use?
26 in. racquets are generally for kids ages 11-12, who have played tennis for a few years or are able to handle swinging a longer racquet. If the junior is above the age of 12, we recommend that you look at purchasing an adult racquet ranging in length between 27 – 27.25 inches.

What is the most common tennis grip size?
What are the most common tennis racquet grip sizes? As they tend to have smaller hands, women generally use smaller grip sizes than men. Most women play with the sizes 1, 2 and 3, while most men go for 3, 4 and 5.
What grip size do I need for tennis?
The main rule with grip size is that you want a handle big enough so that there is some space between the tips of your fingers and your hand (like the image on the left). If your fingers go all the way around the handle and run back into your hand (like the image on the right), you need a larger grip size.
