Black Friday tennis balls
A pressurised ball loses its bounce after just a few matches, even when stored: the Black Friday tennis balls is the perfect time to restock. Match tubes, boxes for the club and beginner balls for the kids are all gathered here.
Pressurised or non-pressurised
The pressurised ball, filled with gas, offers the lively bounce expected in a match, but it gradually loses it, even when unused. The non-pressurised ball derives its bounce from the thickness of its rubber: initially firmer, it lasts much longer and is suitable for training.
Red, orange, green: beginner balls
The red ball, larger and very slow, is for younger players on a smaller court. The orange one assists learning on an intermediate court. The green ball, slightly slowed down, prepares for the transition to the yellow ball.
Tube or box: buy according to your playing frequency
The tube is enough for an occasional match. If you play several times a week or if you are equipping a tennis school, the box helps avoid running after new balls.

Frequently asked questions
Where to buy cheap tennis balls?
During the Black Friday, on this page, in tubes as well as boxes. For the rest of the year, the tennis clearance also offers end-of-range products.
How long can you keep an open tube of balls?
A pressurised ball starts to lose its pressure as soon as the tube is opened. For a match, take a new tube; older balls are best used for training.
What ball for a child who is starting out?
A complete beginner starts with the red ball, then moves on to the orange and green as they progress. It is their level and the size of the court that matter more than their age.
Are non-pressurised balls good for matches?
They are harder and slower at first, which changes the feel. They are reserved for training, ball machines, and walls.
What ball for playing on clay?
The balls designed for clay courts have a felt that collects less dirt, while those for hard courts have a thicker felt that withstands wear. All-court balls are suitable for club play.
