Ready to introduce your child to organized tennis, but not sure if they're ready for a league, and you don't want to spend all day or a weekend playing a tournament? Then you're ready to L9.
Ages: 6-17
Time: 4:30-8:00pm
Cost: $23
USTA Florida L9 events are four-hour play periods where children age 5-17 hone their tennis skills in a fun, no-pressure format using modified equipment.
Depending on a child's age and experience, they will play with the correct racquet size (smaller for kid's hands) and court size (36-foot for beginners or very young children, up to 60-foot and regulation 78-foot courts), and with lower-compression balls that bounce in a child's hitting zone rather than over their head.
L9 events are designed for rookie-level players who can serve, rally and keep score. By removing the rankings, and focusing on gaining experience playing against kids of the same level rather than winning, L9 events provide a more fun way for youth players to participate.
