Development / ball transition structure:
Under 8s - Red Ball
This is the first stage of tennis development and is important for building skills and confidence. The focus starts on improving movement and ball skills as well as an introduction to rallying and playing the game. Children are then developed technically and tactically so that they can play the game successfully within the smaller court. Read More >>
Ages 8 and 9 - Orange Ball
Orange ball mini tennis is for players aged 8 and 9. It is played on slightly larger courts than red ball, with bigger rackets and balls that are not as soft as red balls. It’s the next stage to go through before the children start playing on a full sized court and it will help develop all the different shots, providing fun competition. Read More >>
Age 10 - Green Ball
The final stage before progressing to the full game is played with a green ball that bounces slightly lower than a normal tennis ball, allowing the children to improve their technique and rallying skills. Read More >>
Age 10 plus - Yellow Ball
Yellow ball competition is for players aged 11 and over. It is played on a full tennis court, with full size rackets and full compression yellow balls. It’s the last stage of your tennis development and the technique and skills that you have developed through the stages of mini tennis can now be put into practice. Read More >>
