DEVELOPMENT PATHWAY LEVELS
Red Ball
Our Red Ball program is a fun introduction to tennis for any child. This program builds the foundation to be a high-performance player. We develop the fundamentals of tennis, such as hand-eye coordination and basic footwork patterns, in a friendly, fun, and safe environment. Our Red Ball levels start for beginners and progress through competitive Red Ball players.
|
Orange Ball
After advancing through our Red Ball program, our Orange Ball players work on a variety of complex movements, such as developing fundamental swing shapes and advanced footwork patterns. Athletic development, core strength, and balance become areas of focus. We concentrate on serves, returns, and tactics. Players start to learn the game of tennis, and focus on tournaments. We have multiple levels of Orange, starting with beginners and progressing to Orange High Performance.
|
Green Ball
Our Green Ball program is designed for players looking to take their game to the next level. This phase is the critical transition from 10 and Under Tennis to full Yellow Ball. We work with players and parents to track performance goals and achievement. Players are encouraged to have a USTA membership, as tournament play is a cornerstone of the program. We also have fun!
|
Yellow Ball
Yellow Ball is full-court tennis with full-compression tennis balls. It is for graduates of our Red/Orange/Green Ball progression. IJP Tennis works develop our players into performance juniors that move onto Yellow Ball, whether that be in USTA tournaments, high school tennis, or in recreational matches, as a lifelong tennis player.
