          • QuickStart Tennis
            QuickStart Tennis format is a new way for kids 10 & under to learn and play the game. The court sizes. The racquet sizes. The balls. The scoring system. Even the net height has been adjusted to ease kid’s entry into the sport. This new tennis format is tailor-made for kids. And when all these elements are used together, it truly works. Any child between ages five and ten can start playing tennis almost immediately, even if he or she has never picked up a racquet before. Plus, just like other popular sports with youth versions, the QuickStart format stresses the importance of play and team competition. And since most kids love team sports, this new format is now part of the USTA Jr. Team Tennis league. Kids will now have the opportunity to play with their friends while developing their skills.

          • Recreational Coach Workshops provide better skills, tools, resources and training for those teaching entry level tennis to players of all ages.

          • USTA recognizes and offers assistance to high school tennis coaches who don’t cut players from their team.

          • Whether you are coaching a six-year-old or 22-year-old, USTA Player Development can assist you in developing a High Performance player.

          • USTA offers training programs for physical education teachers interested in implementing tennis into their schools. No previous tennis experience is required and teacher-friendly lesson plans are provided that make offering tennis in any school setting possible.

          • Top Ten Games Every Coach Should Know - This interactive tool is ideal for all coaches and instructors who conduct team practices and group lessons. Try these games in your next practice and your players will have fun while honing their skills and tactics.
