• Purchase the racquet based on your skill level. Get to know the category you fall into. It should not be hard for you to identify yourself as beginner, intermediate or advanced player. • If you are beginner, especially at senior age or as a female, you tend to have shorter, slower swings and need more power from the racquet. Thus you want racquet which is light weight (8-9.5 ounces), has an oversize head (107-135 square inches), is longer (27-29 inches) and is head heavy. • Intermediate players may need less power from the racquet. Seek a racquet that has enhanced maneuverability. Other features to consider include a racquet that provides a blend of features including being lighter (9.5-11 ounces), midplus (95-102 square inches) heads and have an extended length (27.5- 28 inches). • Advanced to high-level players should purchase a racquet that offers more control. Advanced tennis players may need a racquet which is heavier in weight (11.5-13 plus ounces), has a smaller head (85-98 in
