Notes from the coach
HOW IT WORKS... Mini Tennis Orange is a great way for players to continue their progress from Mini Tennis Red and is for players aged 8 and 9. It is played with shorter rackets, softer balls and courts are bigger and wider than the red stage but still smaller than full-size tennis courts allowing players to develop a rounded game whilst learning a range of techniques and tactics. It is the next stage before playing on a full sized court and helps players develop different shots and tactics. What age is Mini Tennis Orange aimed at? Mini Tennis Orange is for players aged 8 and 9. What ball is used? An orange ball is used which is 50% slower than a yellow ball, giving players better control at this important stage of development. What size court is Mini Tennis Orange played on? Mini Tennis Orange is played on a 18m x 6.5m court. What height is the net? 80cm at the middle of the net. What racket is best to use? A racket of 58cm – 63 cm (23” – 25”) should be used depending child
