Overview
The Prince Tour 25" racquet is a great option for juniors ages 9-10 who value control and feel in their game. Boasting the same qualities as the adult model, this junior version is more maneuverable so juniors can focus on their stroke development rather than hauling around equipment that's too heavy for them. The 100 square inch head size and 16x19 string pattern both help create controllable power and excellent spin. If feel and touch are a priority, look no further than this premium offering from Prince.

Customer Reviews
Great but grip is too large for juniorsThis racquet is great. This racquet is NOT a recreational or kids aluminum racquet. Comes with 15L strings in very low tension which will work well for a junior. Racquet can also be restrung using around the world pattern. The only downside is the grip is size 0 or 4” in diameter. This is WAY too big for a kids hand. The 25” racquet is targeted at kids 50-55” so 4'2” to about 4'7”. My son is 4' tall and can easily swing this racquet but the grip is WAY too big for him. His 23” Babolat Pure drive junior has a 3 7/8 grip which is also on the large size for him. We replace the stock grip with a thinner grip to make the racquet fit perfectly for him. My daughter's (9 years old) 26” T-Fight is also 3 7/8 grip size and fits her well. A racquet that is 24” should still be sized for kids that are 8-10 years old and either come in different sizes OR have a smaller size that can be built up for older kids.

Efficient & friendlyTennis Warehouse service was 5-stars. 4-star rating for product because manufacturer or retailer need to sell a slim zipper case if needed. I learned only full-size racquet duffels are available these days. I ended-up buying a slim zipper case off Amazon.
