Inside Junior Tennis
Junior Tennis offers a full range of junior tennis activities, including clinics and camps like Little Tennis for children ages 3 to 5 and our Five Tiered classes for ages 5 to 17:
TIER 1 – The Tier 1 class is the next level up from Little Tennis for ages 5 to 7. Now that your little one has established a love of the game, players begin working on improving their technique while also learning how to hit the ball over the net from half court.
TIER 2 – Tier 2 is open to children ages 8 to 10. Now working with a solid foundation of the game's fundamentals and technique, these players are learning how to rally over the net using a short and long court.
TIER 3 – Our Tier 3 class continues to work with players ages 10 to 14 who want to prepare for high school tennis and tournaments. These players start to learn pattern play while keeping the ball in play at higher levels of accuracy.
TIER 4 – This program is designed for high-level players ages 10 and older who want to achieve a Southern California ranking while playing tournaments. Players are working on pattern play, strategy and player style preference while incorporating the proper footwork and technique.
