645 cm² / 100 in²
With a larger headsize, these racquets provide more power and a bigger sweet spot. Ideal for kids aged 8-10 (25-inch) and 9-11 (26-inch), they help young players hit the ball with more ease and confidence while developing their skills.
16/19
The 16x19 string pattern, with 16 main and 19 cross strings, is more open, allowing for greater spin and power. The wider spacing between the strings enables the ball to sink deeper, creating more power and responsiveness, making it ideal for aggressive baseline players who rely on spin and speed.
24 mm
Perfect for kids aged 9–11, 26-inch racquets are lightweight, easy to handle, and slightly shorter than adult racquets—helping young players develop control, power, and confidence as they grow into the game.
Purple is Coco Gauff’s favorite color and the tonal purple design of the BOOM ALTERNATE JR – which is endorsed by Gauff and Lorenzo Musetti – offers a striking and progressive look that matches the racquet’s explosive feel. Ambitious juniors aged from 9 to 11 can make a powerful statement with a racquet that combines explosive power with the touch to play delicate drop shots, letting them play modern tennis. The introduction of Hy-Bor, a state-of-the-art material mix that is mainly used in the high-tech aerospace industry, to the racquet’s shaft has improved the perceived stability and power. This model has a construction that is based on the adult MP and MP L racquets in the BOOM series, with smaller dimensions to suit up-and-coming juniors. With the power, confidence and fun that comes from playing with the BOOM ALTERNATE JR, juniors don't have to think about anything else but enjoying the moment and hitting their next shot.
Play with confidence and power with new Hy-Bor technology. Made with state-of-the-art materials, Hy-Bor has compressional strength that maximizes perceived stability.
