This is an introduction to tennis using sponge tennis balls. Here, we’ll help kids improve their balance, agility and co-ordination while teaching them about the sport we love. Its all about FUN! Indoors with sponge balls.
4 - 8 Years
Red Stage
Groups (all indoors)
The red ball will travel 75% slower than a standard yellow ball. This will look a bit more like the tennis you know. You’ll see overarm serves, rallies and volleys. Coaches will help children to further develop their co-ordination, balance and speed. We’ll introduce relaxed competition here too.

Orange Stage
Groups (all indoors)
The orange ball will travel 50% slower than the standard yellow ball. Time to throw in some tactics, problem-solving, and guides to sportsmanship and leadership. At this stage children will know all of the rules and will be serving and returning in matches.
9 - 18 Years
Green/Yellow Stage
Groups (indoors/outdoors)
The coach will decide the ball colour for the group. Typically, 11 years and under, green ball and over 11 years of age, yellow ball. Both played on a full size court but the green ball will bounce and travel 20% slower.
Please see the different size courts we use for the blue/red, orange and green ball stages. Green and yellow stages use a full size court.
