Verdict

The HEAD Speed Team 2025 delivers the Speed line's handling priority in a fiberglass construction at EUR 152.95. Teardrop shape, fiberglass face, Eva Soft core, 360g. The accessible version of what the carbon Speed Motion provides at EUR 189.95.

Who should buy the Head Speed Team 2025?

The Speed Team 2025 is a teardrop-shaped racket weighing 360 to 370g, built around a fibreglass face and an Eva Soft core. It delivers the Speed line's handling priority in a fibreglass construction - the accessible version of what the carbon Speed Motion provides.

Right pick if you're an advanced player who wants Speed line fast-handling in a comfortable fibreglass construction for sustained play. Wrong pick if you want the carbon feel of the Speed Motion or power-first diamond options.

How does the Speed Team play?

The Speed line is Head's fast-handling range - where Radical emphasises precision and Extreme emphasises power, Speed prioritises swing speed, quick recovery and agile court movement. The Team brings this to advanced players who want fast handling without carbon arm load, whether to protect a high-volume arm or because they prefer fibreglass feel.

Fibreglass at 360g with a teardrop shape suits players who move quickly and want a forgiving, sustainable racket for frequent play.

What is it made of?

The fibreglass face and Eva Soft core form an arm-friendly combination that is more sustainable than carbon for high-frequency players, in a fast-handling teardrop frame. The fibreglass is less explosive than the carbon Speed Motion, but more comfortable across high-volume play.

How does it compare to the Speed Motion?

The Team is the fibreglass version for comfort and sustainability; the Motion is the carbon flagship for feel and exit speed. The Team trades carbon directness for arm-friendliness and a lower price, keeping the Speed line's fast handling. For high-frequency players protecting their arm, the Team is the sensible choice.

Final verdict

The Speed Team 2025 delivers the Speed line's fast handling in a comfortable fibreglass construction, with a teardrop shape for all-court versatility and good sustainability for high-frequency players. The fibreglass is less explosive than the carbon Speed Motion, it is a 2025 model, and at its price it is a notable price for fibreglass. If your game fits advanced player, this delivers. If it doesn't, look at the alternatives noted above.
