Okay Mama's Im looking for your experience so I can't goggle that....My daughter has expressed interest in tennis verbally only! so you know what that means she may excel at it or get bored with it. Which store can I find the best price rackets? We looked at kmart and they were $24.99 can I find them cheaper than that?

I have checked craigh list as well with no luck.

What can I do next?

I sent my husband out to find one for the four year old. It was to pretend he was "Alvin" and I didn't want to deal with REAL guitar yet. He came back from the flea market with GREAT tennis racquet with a cover.

My husband used to play a lot and said that one was better than his super expensive one. It was $4.00!

OR ask around. SOMEONE always has one in their garage.

Do you have a Wal-Mart in your area?
I would definitely start with the least expensive racket in case she ends up not liking it.
Good luck!

What about Play it again Sports? It's a second hand store that might have them. Dick's Sporting Goods? I would ask the Tennis Pro's where they suggest. It might be their store, but watch it could be high. My friends daughter plays tennis and is in tournaments. I know they shopped around for rackets.

Try a used sports store. Talk to the coach. If she does do well and love it, invest in something that will grow with her.

We paid about $100 for a medium quality about 4 yrs ago.
