Description
At 26 1/4 inches, the Athena ATHJR1 is built shorter than the rest of the Athena lineup, sized for a smaller player rather than trimmed down from a full-length cue. It keeps the same 10 to 12 inch pro taper, 13.00mm hard rock maple shaft, 5/16×18 piloted joint, and linen wrap found on the brand’s full-size models, finished in pink and white. It is a practical option for a younger or smaller-framed player who wants a cue sized for them rather than borrowing a house cue built for an adult. At about $130, the ATHJR1 is currently out of stock.

Athena ATHUR1 52 Inch Junior Pool Cue – and it has PINK!
Without a doubt, we signed a granddaughter (10 yrs) up for a new jr. league here in Sarnia. Her cue, a surprise hadn’t came by the time of the orientation class. It did come during the week and she came over with her parents to see what I had. She was very excited about her own stick (For me? Just me?). but when she saw the pink she all but swooned. She likes it really much and is learning to play respectfully with it.

i am thrilled with this stick! It is comfortable and flawless for anyone 5 ft or under. I do use a little bit heavier jr stick to break with, the the Athens is awesome!

First cue for my 12 year old
In my experience, after a few trips to the pool hall, we couldn’t find a house cue that was both straight and had a fine tip. I decided it was time for her first cue since she was enjoying the game. I’ve now taken her out 5 times with the Athena ATHJR1 52″ pool cue. She shoots much more confidently and the balance point is much closer to her arm length than with her mom’s stick. I don’t expect it to last her more than 2 years as she grows, however she really likes the stick. Athena may have a returning customer from my daughter in a year or two.
