"Red Ball Team challenge was a great way to introduce kids to competitve tennis and the kids had a lot of fun. We definitely want to do it again and we hope to beinvolved in the Orange Ball pilot program and Green Ball pilot as well."

Peter Green

"I felt the red ball team challenge accomplished two major things: First the parents better understand why the modified equipment works and second we have converted at least one coach working with this age group to proper modified equipment. On top of everything else the kids had fun!"

Leigh Chak

"The kids and parents loved the team challenge. Every kid was asking when the next one was and we already have word of mouth interest from kids that heard about it. It is a great retention tool and recruitment tool to introduce tennis to new young players."
