GNTC Junior Pathway aligns

with the ITF's global "Tennis Play and Stay" philosophy!

The ITF's Tennis10s program, which is the junior component of Play & Stay,

Goal: To ensure starter players can Serve, Rally, and Score from their very first lesson.

Method: This is achieved by using Red, Orange, and Green slower balls on appropriately sized courts. These balls are easier to control and bounce lower, making the game immediately playable and fun for young athletes.
