Our Philosophy is all about getting kids match ready ASAP! Playing others, competing, having fun, and building friendships

Blue Ball

Ages 3-5+

A starting point to teach kids the fundamental movement skills needed to be able to eventually rally and play Red Ball.

  • Throwing and catching

  • Tracking

  • Racket control and skills

  • Aiming

  • Cooperation

  • Hitting to a target

Red Ball

Ages 5-8+

This is where we get kids to start playing tennis! Players learn to serve, rally, and play against others with scoring, both in singles and doubles

  • More fundamental movement skills

  • Overhead serve

  • Full swings with finishes

  • Court coverage

  • Consistency and hitting away from opposition

  • Cooperation and competition

  • Scoring, rules, and sportsmanship

Orange Ball

Ages 8-10+

Kids start developing solid technical and tactical bases, and may even get their first exposure to tournaments! The court expands, the ball gets smaller and bouncier, and more options are available

  • Topspin

  • Volleys and transition to net

  • Slice serves

  • Recognising offence, neutral, and defence

  • Movement patterns and stances

  • Being part of a team in internal leagues and tournaments

Green Ball

Ages 10-12+

Transition stage to yellow ball. The court’s now full size, and players develop all the base technical, tactical, and movement skills that will serve them going forwards with their tennis.

  • Slices

  • Variation of speed and spin

  • Mastery of different grips

  • Using angles, height, and speed both offensively and defensively

  • Competing against other clubs as part of a team
