1. What does Innegra technology add for young players?
Innegra fibres help absorb shock and stabilise the frame, making the racket feel softer and more comfortable for developing arms.

A lighter frame allows juniors to swing freely, maintain control, and learn proper technique without strain.
3. When should a child move up from a 23-inch racket?
