Babolat Alioth JR

The Babolat Alioth JR is a padel racket specially designed for young players who are already beyond their very first introduction to padel. This model is the logical next step after a mini racket and is intended to further develop technique, control, and game insight without making the racket too heavy or too demanding.

The Alioth JR is not a performance racket for adults, but a fully-fledged junior racket tailored to the strength, height, and motor skills of young players.

What type of player is this racket suitable for?

The Babolat Alioth JR is suitable for young players of primary school age, generally from around 8 to 11 years old (depending on height and strength), who already play padel regularly. The racket is suitable for both left and right-handed players and helps young players to further develop their game.

For novices, the Mini version is more suitable. For older youth players or players who are already able to play with an adult racket, the Alioth JR may be too light.

Key features

The round shape provides a large and centrally located sweet spot, which helps with control and forgiveness. The balance is low, making the racket easy to handle and supporting fast movements.

The hitting surface is made of light and flexible materials and has a soft feel. The blade is clearly not hard, which is important for comfort and to relieve strain on the arm during growth and development.

The core consists of soft EVA foam, which dampens vibrations and makes the racket arm-friendly. This helps young players train and play matches for longer and with more enjoyment.

Playing feel and performance

On the court, the Babolat Alioth JR feels light, comfortable, and forgiving. The ball comes off the racket easily without requiring a lot of power. The racket encourages proper technique and helps young players build confidence in their strokes.

This makes the Alioth JR an excellent choice for young players making the transition from a mini racket to a serious junior racket within the Babolat range.

    Round:
    Round rackets have a low balance with a large sweet spot (ideal hitting point) in the center of the racket. Round rackets are very maneuverable and offer a lot of control. Perfect for beginners or experienced players who desire a lot of control in their game.
