Program Tennis 10s
Tennis 10s is an International Tennis Federation program, which revolutionarily introduces: slow, less bouncing balls usage, shorter and lighter rackets as well as smaller courts. The concept is based on the idea to make it easier for children in order to start playing tennis.
The court, balls, and rackets size are in accordance with knowledge and age. It starts with a red level, which is followed by the orange one, and finally the green one.
The Kids Tennis program is designed to teach young children basic skills, coordination, and basic tennis stroke production in a fun and exciting environment.

This is an entry-level class where kids will learn the basics of tennis including rallying, basic scoring, serving, and understanding how to compete. It is perfect for all kids 5-8 years old of any level. Kids can join at any stage throughout the year. We grade the classes with lesson plans to help progress the kids and find their level. There is no rush to move kids out of the red ball to the next level. Sometimes they may stay in the red level for 3 years. Kids need to learn all the aspects of the game in an environment that is suited to their size and ability. Our red stage is also where we introduce the kids to in-house match play. This is a free addition to all the classes which gets them practicing what they learn in their lessons against other kids from the club in a fun, coach-supervised, team environment. We also have inter-club team events.

The green ball program runs on the full court size using slightly softer balls so the bounce is not quite and the rally speed is slightly slower to make learning easier again. Moreover, it is more fun for kids. The general green ball program does not have any minimum playing standard and kids can join the program any time during the year. At this stage, players are taught about all the areas of the game both technical and tactical and are – hopefully – guided into playing in regular inter-club fixtures or in-house match play sessions. This program is designed for the more competitive green ballplayer. There is a minimum playing level required for this and it is expected that players have regular private lessons and compete in regular individual and team tournaments and events.
This program is specifically designed to create confident young tennis players and encourage them to see tennis as a life-long sport. Each child will learn in a relaxed and fun environment with a strong emphasis on interactive learning through target-based games. Using the kids’ tennis booklets, coaches track the progress of players each week. Furthermore, there is a possibility to continue learning at home.
