Indoor Tennis
Weve taken the exciting new 10 and Under Tennis program and adapted it for kids 11-13 who want to learn tennis. The difference between this and other beginning tennis programs? Everything is right-sized for these ages: racquets are lighter and smaller, balls are less bouncy and easier to hit, and courts are smaller (but proportionate) than adult courts. The benefits are immediate. Within an hour kids are rallying, having fun and psyched for more. Theyre playing real tennis and l having real fun. See p.151 for more details on 10 and Under Tennis, and sign up your 11-13 year-old today!

USTA 10 and Under Tennis (Outdoor)

This wonderful new tennis program will change the way kids 10 and under learn and play tennis from here on out. Basketball, soccer and baseball all modify their fields and equipment to fit younger players. But when it comes to tennis, we ask children to play on adult-sized courts with hard, high-flying balls and adultsized racquets. 10 and Under Tennis uses the QuickStart play format and scales everything to kid-size, making tennis more fun right from the beginning. Visit www.10andUnderTennis.com for more information, and sign up today!
