Junior Team Tennis

Junior Team Tennis (JTT) is the flagship junior program of the USTA that combines level-based competition with the fun and camaraderie of playing on a team.  JTT brings together boys and girls, ages 6 to 18, to play singles, doubles and mixed doubles against other coed teams. JTT events range from one-day tournaments to leagues that span multiple dates. The JTT championship track allows teams to advance to USTA Eastern’s Sectional Championships, where they can earn a spot to represent the section at the Junior Team Tennis National Championships.

Local Leagues (Ages 10-18)

 

Local JTT leagues offer players the opportunity to gain some competitive experience in a fun, team atmosphere. JTT Leagues compete in the fall and spring and are offered in the majority of USTA Eastern regions. Parents have the option to form and captain a team if they wish.

 

JTT local leagues are offered in the 10 & Under (10U), 12U, 14U & 18U age groups and are divided into three divisions: 10 and Under, Beginner and Intermediate. To find the right league fit, check out the division descriptions below.
