Even if you choose to use manufacturer’s packaging instead of Amazon’s box, it will be in Head’s box.

    We had the smaller version that has held up extremely well. We've been using this larger size for a few weeks now and my son says he can hit the ball farther. These rackets get dinged up a lot! Great tennis racket for a 5-6 year old who is interested in the game!

    My daughter who is about 50 inches tall says this 23-inch racquet is just right - size and weight. It turns out, this is the racquet the very experienced coach has for his students of this height to use. My only question is why does the manufacturer use a white grip tape? The coach's white grip tape is kind of grey after so much usage. We have used this racquet for about two months with moderate use. I recommend.
