MINI TENNIS - Children aged between three and 10-years-old can get stuck into the world of tennis with this exciting programme from the LTA.

Featuring shorter courts, nets, rackets and soft, low-bouncing balls, Mini Tennis provides the perfect introduction to tennis for young children.

There are four stages of Mini Tennis; Tots (3-5 years old), Red (5-8 years old), Orange (8-9 years old) and Green (10 years old) – each with their own court size and ball-type. This tailored approach enables players to develop vital skills and techniques at an early age.

YELLOW BALL - Children between 10 and 16 years old. Regular tennis balls and full sized court.
