Description
The Yonex Smash Team Tennis Racket in White/Silver is the premium-looking colorway of Yonex’s Smash Team lineup — a strung graphite racket built for players getting serious about tennis without committing to an advanced-level price tag. The white and silver finish gives it a sleek, modern appearance on court, while the frame underneath delivers the same reliable performance as the other Smash Team color variants.
WHY THE YONEX SMASH TEAM TENNIS RACKET STANDS OUT IN ITS PRICE RANGE
Graphite Over Aluminum
In the tennis racket under ₹5,000 category, most options use aluminum or basic composite frames. The Smash Team separates itself with a full graphite composite construction. This translates to a stiffer, more responsive frame that sends cleaner energy into the ball on contact. You notice the difference immediately — groundstrokes feel crisper, volleys have more precision, and the frame does not twist as easily on off-center hits. For anyone upgrading from an aluminum starter racket, this is a significant step forward in shot quality.
Durability Across Indian Conditions
Graphite composite handles temperature swings and humidity better than aluminum, which matters if you play across seasons in India. The frame stays consistent whether you are training in Pune’s dry winters or Mumbai’s monsoon-adjacent humidity. Players in Delhi, Bengaluru, Chennai, and Hyderabad will find the racket performs predictably year-round without warping or losing tension response.
ISOMETRIC SWEET SPOT TECHNOLOGY
The Yonex Smash Team Tennis Racket features Yonex’s Isometric head shape — a squared-off frame design that has been part of Yonex’s racket DNA for over three decades. By reshaping the head from a traditional oval to a more rectangular form, Yonex optimizes how main and cross strings intersect. The result is a sweet spot that is 7% larger than conventional round-headed rackets. Developing players benefit most from this — you get rewarded with decent shots even when contact is not perfectly centered.
COURT PERFORMANCE BREAKDOWN
Power and Spin Potential
The 100 sq.in. head and 16×19 string pattern work together to produce accessible power with natural spin generation. The open string spacing grabs the ball slightly longer at impact, adding rotation without requiring advanced technique. Flat drives land with good depth, while topspin rallies stay consistent from the baseline. The combination keeps this racket versatile — it does not force you into one style of play.
Comfortable Weight and Balance
At 290 grams strung with a 335mm balance, the Smash Team sits in a sweet spot for developing players. It is light enough to swing quickly on returns and volleys, yet carries enough mass to generate pace on serves and baseline drives. The 24mm beam width absorbs vibrations well, keeping the arm comfortable during extended sessions — particularly important for coaching class students hitting for 60-90 minutes at a stretch.
WHO SHOULD CHOOSE THE WHITE/SILVER VARIANT
Style-Conscious Beginners
The White/Silver colorway appeals to players who value aesthetics alongside performance. The clean white frame with silver accents looks sharp on any court surface and pairs well with most tennis apparel. If you are a tennis racket for beginners buyer who also cares about how your gear looks, this variant delivers on both fronts without costing more than the other Smash Team colors.
Club and Recreational Players
Weekend doubles players, social tennis groups, and club members looking for a dependable Yonex tennis racket at an accessible price will appreciate what the Smash Team offers. It handles casual matches and practice rallies with equal comfort, and serves as a solid backup frame for intermediate players protecting their primary racket during travel or rough practice sessions.

The Yonex Smash Team Tennis Racket White/Silver ships pre-strung and match-ready. The factory string setup works well for recreational and beginner play. The frame supports a restring tension range of 45-55 lbs when you decide to upgrade to a preferred string later.
