Mini Tennis is a great introduction to the sport for young children between 3 and 10 years old. It’s just like the real thing, but with smaller courts, nets and rackets and lower-bouncing balls.There are three levels of Mini Tennis; Red, Orange and Green, each with there own court size and type of ball. This tailored approach, based on age and physical maturity enables players to develop vital skills and techniques at an early age.

 

Many sports have a mini version including, football, rugby and cricket which are helping to develop young talent in appropriate learning environments.The low compression balls used in Mini Tennis are now being used by clubs and coaches accross the UK to introduce adult beginners to the sport. The slower and lower bouncing balls make it far easier to learn the game.
