PROGRAMS
Our Junior Tennis coaching programs have been very popular. We still have positions available however they are filling fast. Unlike our competitors, we keep class sizes small and consistent and for this reason, we have had to run our under 10’s tennis programs every day of the week. To find out what session times are still available please contact us directly via our contact page.
Blue stage (ages 3–5)
The Blue stage introduces children to tennis through games and fun activities. Children learn the basics of tennis including how to rally.
Court size: variable
Tennis ball: red ball (25% compression)
Recommended racquet size: 19–23 inches
Red stage (ages 5–8)
The Red stage is for beginners. The red ball is larger than a yellow ball and doesn’t bounce as high (just 25 percent compression), making it a breeze for even the youngest players to hit it comfortably. The courts and nets used in the Red stage are much smaller and easier for kids to move around.
Court size: 3 m × 8.23 or 6 m × 10.97 m
Tennis ball: red ball (25 percent compression)
Recommended racquet size: 21–23 inches
Orange stage (ages 8–10)
After mastering the Red stage, children move on to the Orange stage where the ball bounces a little higher (50 percent compression) and the court is a bit bigger.
Court size: 6.4 m × 18.29 m
Tennis ball: orange ball (50 percent compression)
Recommended racquet size: 23–25 inches
Green stage (ages 9+)
The ball used in the Green stage has a higher compression (75 percent of a yellow tennis ball) and children play on a full-size court.
Court size: 10.97 m × 23.78 m (full court)
Tennis ball: green ball (75 percent compression)
Recommended racquet size:25–27 inches
