6-Week Junior Tennis League Fall 2026
We’re excited to announce our upcoming 6-Week Junior Tennis League this fall!
The league is designed to give kids the opportunity to take what they’ve been learning in class and apply it to real point play and match situations in a fun, organized, and supportive environment.

On November 21st, from 3:00–4:00 PM, we’ll wrap up our 6-Week League with a potluck and trophy celebration for all of our players! 🏆🎾
The 6-Week League is $225 per player and includes an MTA T-shirt, all six weeks of league play, and a trophy or medal presented to each player during our final-day celebration. 🎾🏆
Who Can Join?
Any player who is starting to rally and is ready to begin playing points is welcome to participate. Players do not need extensive match experience—the league is designed to help kids learn how to compete, keep score, and become comfortable playing matches.
If you’re unsure whether your child is ready, we encourage you to check with their coach to see if the league would be a good fit.
Players will be separated by age and ability into appropriate playing levels, including:
🔴 Red Ball — Introductory match play for younger players beginning to rally and play points.
🟠 Orange Ball — For players developing stronger rallies, serving, scoring, and point play.
🟢 Green Dot / Full Court — For players ready to develop their match skills on a full court.
Coaches & Learning to Play Independently
MTA coaches will be on the courts throughout the league to supervise, assist with scoring, explain rules, and help players when needed.
However, one of the primary goals of the six-week program is to gradually reduce how much assistance players need. By the end of the league, we want each player to be able to run and complete a tennis match as independently as possible—including understanding scoring, serving order, switching sides, calling balls, and basic match etiquette.
🏆 Four Teams
Every player will also be placed onto one of our four Grand Slam teams:
🇦🇺 Australian Open
🇫🇷 French Open
🇬🇧 Wimbledon
🇺🇸 U.S. Open
Players will represent their team throughout the six weeks, adding a fun team element to their individual matches.
⏰ Match Times
Although the league runs from 1:00–3:00 PM, your child’s individual match time will vary each week. Matches will be scheduled in either the:
1:00–2:00 PM time slot
or
2:00–3:00 PM time slot
Please note that we will not be able to accommodate requests to change assigned match times. Each week’s schedule is built around multiple players, teams, levels, and matchups, so moving one player’s time affects other players and time slots. If your child cannot attend a particular weekend, you must let us know in advance. This is very important so we can adjust the schedule and make sure their scheduled opponent still has a match.
Throughout the six weeks, we’ll focus on match experience, scoring, serving, court positioning, sportsmanship, independence, and learning how to compete. Our goal is to create a comfortable bridge between regular tennis classes and independent competitive match play.
Please fill out this Google Form for additional information and details. The registration link is also included within the form for your convenience.
Purchasing the 6-Week League will confirm your child’s placement in the program. Our coaches will determine the most appropriate match-play level for each player based on their age, ability, and experience.
