HEAD Speed Jr. 25 2026

The 25 in Speed Jr. — a lightweight, properly balanced junior frame for players who have outgrown a 23 in racket but aren't ready for 26 in yet.

At 230 g and balanced dead even, it is easy for a smaller player to accelerate without dropping the head. The 100 in² face gives a big target while technique is still forming, and the 16×19 pattern behaves like the adult Speed, so the step up later is a change of size rather than a change of racket.

Who it's for

• Juniors at the 25 in stage
