What it is
Summary
AI-generated from vendor-published content · May 23, 2026
A tennis ball modified with an internal sound source so players who are blind or have low vision can track it by ear during play. It's a replacement component for the APH 30-Love Tennis Kit, designed for students in physical education programs who need an auditory cue to participate in racket sports. This is a single replacement ball — you'll need the full 30-Love Tennis Kit for the complete adapted tennis setup, and this ball won't function as a standalone sports adaptation without that context. Standard-sized tennis ball, so it works with any conventional racket.
