HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR TENNIS BALLS?


A tennis ball is a round and yellow ball made from rubber and covered in a fluffy felt designed inherently for the sport of Tennis.
The wide range of tennis balls available all look fairly similar but can vary considerably in terms of performance.
Therefore, it’s a task to find out what are the differences between them and how do you choose the right tennis equipment?
This article will help you understand the basic differences.
STAGE BALLS:
Stage balls are designed to introduce new players to Tennis. They look distinct from regular tennis balls and offer considerably different performance characteristics.
STAGE ONE (25% BOUNCE):



Tennis ball are the softest variety of tennis balls and are designed for children aged 6 and under.
The performance of the ball is specifically designed for young children, especially in terms of the softness.
This means the ball bounces at around 25% of the height of a regular tennis ball, ensuring the ball does not fly over the child’s head after bouncing.
This softness also means that the impact of the ball on the racket does not damage a child’s wrist.
STAGE TWO (50% BOUNCE):





Tennis ball are designed for children under the age of 10 who have graduated from stage one balls.
The performance characteristics again are tailored to meet the needs of young players, with the bounce height of the ball twice that of a stage one ball or 50% that of a standard ball.
STAGE THREE (75% BOUNCE):



Tennis ball are designed for children from the age of 10 upwards and adult players taking up the game for the first time.
These balls are ideal for any player looking to improve their technique, thanks to the fact that the ball is slightly slower through the air than a regular tennis ball and the bounce height is 75% of a regular ball.

HOW TO CHOOSE YOUR TENNIS RACKET:

Whilst tennis rackets may look roughly similar, rackets can vary considerably in terms of composition and performance and are often targeted at a specific standard of the tennis player.
How then do you choose between them and find the right tennis racket for yourself?
Here are few points you can keep in mind which will help you choose the right racket suitable for your level.

MATERIALS:

Entry-level tennis rackets are usually made from steel.
The low cost of the material makes steel rackets ideal for occasional players or beginners, but do not offer the same level of performance as other materials on the market.
The next step up on the ladder is aluminum rackets.
Aluminum rackets offer a similar level of strength as steel rackets but are much lighter, which makes the rackets easier to handle.

WEIGHT:

Lighter rackets(less than 280g) are the more suitable option for beginners or occasional players seeking improvements to their technique, as lightweight rackets are easier to handle.
Heavier rackets (above 280g) are less suitable for beginners as well as for junior players making the transition to using adult rackets.

RACKET HEAD SIZE:

As the racket head size increases, the level of power that a player is able to generate will increase, though as head size increases the level of control attainable will decrease.

Beginners should generally choose a medium to large head size as this will maximize the power they are able to generate and also minimize the risk of hitting the ball close to the rim of the racket.
Therefore, they can have more confidence in hitting the ball in the right direction.

HANDLE LENGTH:

Handle length is very important in terms of comfort.
Players who play some of their shots two-handed will generally require a slightly longer handle than those that play exclusively one-handed.

Badminton:



Badminton Sport with two or four opposing players that is similar to tennis; players use rackets to hit a shuttlecock onto opposite sides of a net that divides a court in half.
Badminton is the Fastest & ancient Racket game with shuttle clocking speed in excess of 200 mph.
Badminton is the second most popular racket sports in the world, after soccer.
Badminton is an Olympic Sport played first in the 1992 Olympic Games in Barcelona.
More than 1.1 billion people watched the 1992 Olympic Badminton competition on television.
10 Reasons Why You Should Start Playing Badminton:
Badminton is quite simply one of the most awesome sports you can play.
I used to play at college and gave up once I started working. 13 years ago I took it up again casually and about 6 years ago I decided I wanted to take it more seriously.
I now play up to 4 times a week and I can’t think of a more fun way to spend my free time whilst getting fit!
1. Fun Fun Fun!
Badminton is organized fun for cool people. In fact we may just have to check out how cool you are before we let you join the club.
2. Social
If you join a club, you’ll find that you’ll be off court occasionally.
During those times, you’ll get to mingle, socialize and make lots of new friends.
3. Pace
Badminton is the fastest racquet sport in the world; bar none! Experienced players can smash the shuttle at speeds of over 200mph.
When you learn to return those kinds of shots you get a serious rush!
Just be warned though if a shot like that hits you in the head, you’ll walk around looking like you’re being targeted with a sniper rifle for a while!
4. Reflexes
With great power comes great responsibility and with badminton you will develop lightening quick reflexes.
Because of badminton I once caught a mug full of coffee after I pushed it off the table; WITHOUT SPILLING A DROP!!
5. Fitness



If you like to sweat then badminton is for you. With badminton you burn off the equivalent of a chocolate bar every 30 minutes or so.
6. Agility
With badminton you have to learn to get from one side of the court to the other extremely quickly and so after a while you develop the agility of a cat.
7. Competition
You can keep it a strictly social thing but if you like to be competitive then chances are your club might be part of a league.
If so you’ll get to compete against other clubs and kick some ass after which some victory dances that you and your team mates have made up.
8. Cost
Badminton isn’t the cheapest sport but it doesn’t really break the bank either. The biggest cost is usually the shuttles.
When you join a club the cost of the shuttles may be included and so you may not even notice your wallet get lighter.

9. Spectating:
I’m not really one for living life as a spectator but badminton is one sport I could happily watch for hours.
10. Skills
Whilst also learning to hit the shuttle at speeds that would even make a red Ferrari blush, and resemble a slug, you will also develop the softest touch.
You will be able to just drop the shuttle over the net so it trickles over and hits the ground quicker than your opponent can say ‘ZOIKS SCOOBY’!
