Youth Tennis10 and Under Programs
10 and Under Tennis is a revolutionary change in the way kids learn and play tennis, as well as compete. Tennis is following the formula that the majority of youth sports have used for years, tailoring equipment and courts to a child’s size and age so that they develop skills and have fun right from the start. 10 and Under Tennis is structured for kids to learn tennis and play quickly in a way that is both enjoyable and rewarding.

10 and Under Programs include:
  • QuickStart Class for ages 4-6 and 7-10
  • QuickStart Camp for ages 4-6 and 7-10

11-16 Programs
Beginner classes and camps teach the tennis basics including forehands, backhands, serves, volleys, singles and doubles strategies along with learning the scoring and rules of the game.

Intermediate classes and camps continue teaching tennis basics to players who have some previous tennis experience. Players are grouped according to ability levels for drills and match play.

Advanced classes and camps are designed for players with 3 or more years of tennis experience with proficiency in the tennis fundamentals. Singles and doubles drills and match play is emphasized.

Junior Development Programs
Colorado Junior Team Tennis for ages 8-18 is for beginner to advanced players looking to practice and play against local towns and clubs.
