Net Generation Junior Tennis

Net Generation (NetGen)  junior tennis program, in collaboration with Limitless Performance Academy, spreads the love of tennis to a new generation to teach the whole person to become the best they can be on the court and in life. The program presents a pathway of advancement that allows every player (ages 7-18) and any level (recreational to competitive) to find a place in our program.

Ready to get started?

Tennis can seem intimidating at times – NetGen breaks everything down into 4 easy levels or 'colors'. Each color represents the type of tennis ball used and level of coaching. On the court, your child’s coach will group together similar skill levels within each color.  For more information about the goals of the program and skill progression, see the Learning Pathway Guide below:

SRP Junior Pathway

Red Ball - ages 7-8

Played on a smaller court (36’x18’), Red is the best place to start for kids just starting off. The softest ball in the program, red will bounce lower and travel slower than usual. This, plus the smaller court allow for a fun and welcoming environment where coaches will break down skills into fun activities for kids to learn the fundamentals of tennis.

Orange Ball - ages 9-10

Played on a slightly larger court (60’x21’), Orange is well suited to kids starting to turn their fundamentals into skills. Orange will bounce higher and travel faster than red. With the larger court kids can begin to put everything together and translate fundamentals into skills.
