Wentworth Tennis - Fall/Winter (Sept. 15 - May 15)

JUNIORS

We have a new look for our Junior Tennis Programs starting this fall! We are calling it Quickstart Tennis and it enables kids to learn tennis in a quicker and more fun atmosphere on the court.

The tennis industry has been using smaller racquets and nets for years but he balls and court size have been too fast and too big for smaller and beginner level children.  Quickstart addresses the problem by using a low compression ball which is slower moving, making it easier to hit.  The court size is smaller based on age and ability so no longer will we see a 4 year old hitting on a 78 foot court.  They will have their own 36 foot court to play on!

Please look at the information below which goes into more detail about age groups, ball color and court sizes.Kevin Christian is our Junior Coordinator and will help you register your junior in the appropriate tennis program.  The Quickstart program makes it easier to learn, play and compete in tennis which is FUN!  We have classes in the following age groups:
