The Babolat Drive Junior 23 is a high-quality junior tennis racket designed to help young players aged 6 to 8 years old (approx. 105–120 cm tall) develop their skills with confidence, control, and comfort. Modeled after Babolat’s popular Pure Drive adult racket, this 23-inch version brings modern performance and design to kids who are ready to take their game to the next level.
Built from lightweight graphite composite materials, the Drive Junior 23 offers a perfect balance between maneuverability and stability. Its lighter frame allows for faster swing speeds and easy handling, while still providing a solid, responsive feel on contact — ideal for children learning to rally, serve, and hit with consistency.
The racket’s 100 sq. inch head size delivers a generous sweet spot, helping young players connect more shots cleanly and experience fewer mishits. This forgiveness boosts confidence and supports steady improvement, especially for kids working on timing and technique.
Pre-strung and ready for use right out of the box, the Babolat Drive Junior 23 is a convenient, no-fuss solution for parents and coaches. Its construction is durable enough to withstand regular use by energetic kids, yet refined enough to offer performance benefits that grow with the player.
Styled with bold Babolat blue graphics inspired by the Pure Drive series, this junior racket doesn’t just play great — it looks like the real deal. Young players will love using a racket that resembles what their tennis idols use on tour, which can add motivation and a sense of pride every time they step on court.
With the ideal length, weight, and grip size for its target age group, the Drive Junior 23 helps kids build proper technique and movement habits early on — giving them a smoother path toward competitive junior tennis.
If your child is passionate about tennis and ready to grow with a professional-quality racket built for juniors, the Babolat Drive Junior 23 is the perfect stepping stone toward long-term development and success on the court.
