Review of the Dunlop SpeedBall.
Tuesday July 7, 2009
On the "top half" of the planet at least, this is the time of year when you're most likely to see parents out with their kids, trying to play some tennis. For playing with a beginner, there's nothing better than a SpeedBall, and it can be a lot of fun for players at any level.

Thank you for providing information about this fantastic training tool.
I have trained many coaches on the numerous ways to use this QuickStart Tennis ball to teach kids and adults.
I used it personally for rehabilitating from extensive wrist surgery (twice).
Just yesterday I used it to train a 9 year old nationally ranked player from Thailand. He hit more shots in 10 minutes than he did in hours of lessons with the full compression (yellow) ball. This ball’s feature of slowing down in flight enabled him to learn how to serve and volley, control his shots and work more effectively on his recovery. This was in just one hour. He showed his true talents when he didn’t have to struggle with the impact of a yellow ball. He didn’t want to stop using it!
This ball also makes it possible for families to play tennis together.
Keep the good information coming.
