Description
Overview
The Avaro Badminton Racket 61cm is the junior-length racket in the Avaro range, made for school PE and beginner play. At 61 cm it is shorter than a full-size racket, so younger players can swing it under control and reach the shuttle without the frame feeling top-heavy.
An alloy head and steel shaft keep it sturdy enough for class sets that get handed around all term. Older students and adults should step up to the Avaro Badminton Racket Senior instead.
Key benefits
- Easier control for smaller players with the shorter 61 cm length.
- Alloy head stands up to knocks and floor contact in busy PE classes.
- Steel shaft adds stiffness so beginners get a clean strike.
- Light enough for juniors, with a listed weight of 0.17 kg.
Who it's for
Pick this racket for primary and intermediate PE programmes, lunchtime sport and junior club beginners. It is a starter racket, not one for competitive senior players. Pair it with shuttles and a net from our badminton range for a complete class set.
Sizing guide
Length is the main choice here. The 61 cm junior length suits younger students, while the senior Avaro racket is the full-length option for older players and adults.
Care, safety and set-up
Store rackets in a rack or bag rather than piled on the floor to keep frames and strings true, and wipe grips after sweaty sessions. Avaro gear is designed in NZ and covered by our 12-month guarantee.
