Junior ROGY progressions

RED : Red tennis balls bounce lower and move more slowly through the air, giving beginning players a chance to set up and take a good swing at the ball.

ORANGE : Once comfortable at the Red level, players graduate to playing at the Orange level. Orange balls bounce higher and move faster than the Red felt or foam balls but lower and slower than the Green ball.

GREEN : The Green ball is very similar to the traditional yellow tennis ball but with a slightly lower compression so it rebounds lower off the court after a bounce.
