"Quick Start 36" Red Felt Balls

For anyone not familiar with transition balls (tennis balls that slow the game down for beginners of all ages), here is a general guide to help choose the low-compression transition ball appropriate for each player and situation. Keep in mind that these balls are not just for children, but can also speed up improvement in adult beginners as well since the balls slow down the “action” giving players more time to prepare their racquet and move to each ball.

These “low-compression” balls are less pressurized and do not bounce as fast or as high as regular yellow tennis balls. 

• Red ball—slowest speed, slightly larger than standard tennis balls, lowest bounce
• Orange ball—medium speed, same size as standard tennis balls, somewhat reduced bounce
• Green ball—faster speed, same size as standard tennis balls, slightly reduced bounce
• Yellow (standard) ball—regular speed and bounce

"The Quick Start tennis balls OnCourt OffCourt offers packaged in buckets are tremendous. We ordered 10 each of the large buckets with the red balls (for 36-foot courts), orange balls (for 60-foot courts) and green balls (for 78-foot courts). The buckets come in handy for both targets and storage."
