Why Choose This Racquet?

The Wilson Ultra 26 v5 (245g) is designed to help junior players generate easy power while developing consistency and confidence. Inspired by the Ultra performance series, it delivers a lively and forgiving response thanks to its lightweight 245g frame and 100 sq in head size.

With its blend of power, comfort and manoeuvrability, it’s a great step-up racquet for improving young players.

Recommended String & Tension

A multifilament string is recommended to maximise comfort and provide easy power for junior players. It helps absorb shock and improves playability. Advanced juniors can opt for a soft polyester or hybrid for better control. Recommended tension range: 48–54 lbs (22–24.5 kg). Starting at 50 lbs offers a good balance of comfort and performance.

Who Should Buy This Racquet?
