The world of pickleball is growing and the game that was once considered a pastime for older generations is now attracting a new wave of young, dynamic players. As pickleball continues to make its way into schools and youth programs , we want to help you find the best pickleball paddles for kids. In this article, we'll introduce you to two fantastic paddles available at Pickleball Corner that are perfect for young athletes looking to get started with pickleball.
Features of the paddle for children
Kids' pickleball paddles, often referred to as "junior paddles," have special features tailored to younger players. These junior paddles are ideal for young athletes for a few key reasons:
1. Lightweight: Youth paddles tend to be on the lighter side, with some models weighing as little as 164g. This lightweight construction allows young players to react quickly and maneuver their paddles to the ball easily, making them perfect for those first rallies.
2. Smaller Handle Size: These paddles are available with a handle size of just 8.9cm. This smaller handle size is great for smaller hands. In comparison, the average adult handle size is 10.8cm.
