Ages 4 to 8
A slow, soft red ball on a short court, so a four year old can actually rally on day one. Lots of movement, lots of games, and a coach who knows how to keep eight kids laughing.
Price TBD — see CourtReserve
Ages 8 to 10
The orange ball still bounces low and slow, but the court gets longer and the points get longer with it. This is where strokes start to look like tennis.
Price TBD — see CourtReserve
Ages 10 and up
The green ball is a regular ball with a little less pressure, played on a full court. Kids here are building the game they will take to school teams and tournaments.
