Hi people, it has been a while since I have posted, but the holidays are upon us. I have a 5 yr. nephew and still very much growing, he has taken an interest in tennis. At the moment, he is using one of the cheaper Wal-Mart racquets and my brother suggested getting him a new racquet would be a good gift for him. And I was looking through what was offered, I am noticing either really expensive racquets or really cheap ones from TW. Anyone have advice on what I should get him? I want to get him something a bit bigger, so that he can play with for a while then grow and transition into adult version, but I also don't want to break the bank if he grows out of tennis.

Browsing through TW, only this one seems to be decent?

The frame looks to be full beam, unlike the cheaper aluminum ones and somewhat of a better quality?
What do you guys think? Any advice would be helpful and greatly appreciated.
 
25 inch for a 6 year old is way to big. Most 6 year olds would max out on a 23 inch so I wouldn't go any bigger then that. At this age I would look at what colour he likes and not spend too much because as he grows he will change racquets anyway.
