Junior Team Tennis

Get in the Game!

 USTA Junior Team Tennis brings kids together in teams to play singles, doubles and mixed doubles against other teams. It promotes social skills and important values by fostering a spirit of cooperation and unity, as well as individual self-growth. Also, it’s a fun environment for kids in which they learn that succeeding is really more about how they play the game – win or lose.

To find your  local junior team tennis coordinator's contact and information on how to  sign up for their local junior team tennis leagues contact Megan Legrand at ltajrtennis@louisianatennis.com 


How does it work?
USTA Junior Team Tennis is designed for kids ages 5-18. They are  immediately placed on teams. All you need to start a league are two teams. Matches  can be held anywhere from a local park or school to a commercial or private  club.

Age Groups: 18U, 14U, 12U, 10U
Play Levels: Intermediate

Junior Ratings

 A Junior National Tennis Rating Program (NTRP) rating is a measuring tool that indicates a standard of play that allows players to track their progress as they develop their games. An accurate rating should give a player access to level-based competition. Level-based competition is about grouping players according to ability, regardless of age or gender. For example, players might be grouped together in compatible rating intervals such as 2.4 to 2.7 or 3.1 to 3.3.
