“Tennis is mostly mental...

You win or lose the match before you even go out there.”

– Venus Williams

Junior Tennis Program

Happy Hollow Club utilizes the USTA 10-and-under progression model in our junior development program. 10-and-under is an exciting play format for learning tennis, designed to bring kids into the game by utilizing specialized equipment, shorter court dimensions, and modified scoring, all tailored to age and size. This program is about fitting tennis to kids based on age and physical size. By modifying the court dimensions, equipment (racquet and balls), net height, and scoring system, coupled with a play component, kids will develop better technical skills. When each of these elements is used collaboratively, kids will achieve early success and stay in the game. Achievement at each level prepares children for victory at the next level, creating a pathway for success. Beginner to advanced, let us help your child achieve their tennis goals!


No one should live on golf alone…
