The Yonex JUNIOR 26 Coral Orange is designed for the final junior-length stage before a player moves towards a standard adult racquet. At 26 inches, it suits heights of roughly 135-145 cm, with Yonex suggesting ages 10-11. Its nominal 240 g aluminium frame retains the accessible character of the learning range while giving an older junior more reach on court.
The step before full length
A 100-square-inch head and ISOMETRIC geometry are designed to provide a more forgiving effective contact area while a child practises dependable contact and directional control. The 16x18 pattern suits a general-purpose teaching frame rather than a specialised graphite competition design. Playful learning symbols also remain part of the range, a useful reminder that more mature strokes still begin with simple habits and good positioning.
Coral Orange is a vivid colour option with the same construction as Ocean Blue. Crucially, this is not the EZONE JUNIOR 26: the two models share a length and nominal weight, but the Yonex JUNIOR is aluminium whereas the EZONE junior version uses a graphite-hybrid build. Choose this size for a player who can handle it comfortably now, not merely because adult racquets are the next destination.
