Overview

Penn makes the QST 36 felt ball for the youngest beginners, with a red felt cover over a rubber body and a slower bounce.

A slower bounce gives small players more time to reach the ball, and the felt cover gives it the look of a real tennis ball. Three balls make a small starter pack, and nothing is said about approval.

Who it's for

Parents and teachers introducing young kids to rallying at a gentle pace. Anyone beyond the youngest age bracket needs a livelier ball.

Pros and cons

Pros
  • Felt-covered like a real ball
  • Bright red color
Cons
  • Only for the youngest players

Performance notes

A reduced bounce lengthens the time between bounce and contact, so a young player has longer to set the racquet. A rubber body with a felt cover rebounds lower and slower than a standard ball, per the title.
