Improve your hitting and knowledge of the game by playing short-court tennis with modified equipment. This league is open to beginner (1.0-2.5 NTRP) players ONLY.

How the league works
- Plan to be on court for the full 2 hours each week playing with a mix of red balls and standard yellow balls.
- A coordinator will organize game rotations on site each week.
- USTA will provide all equipment (balls, youth racquets and pop-up nets). If you have an adult-sized racquet, we suggest bringing it as well.
- The focus is fun, fitness, and friendly competition!
