Children of all ages can experience the world of tennis with an exciting programme from the Lawn Tennis Association (LTA). Various stages of LTA Mini Tennis, Red, Orange and Green, each have their own smaller court size, nets and rackets and lower bouncing balls. This tailored approach offers the perfect introduction to the sport, with all the fun and energy of the real thing.
Mini Tennis Red is for starters. It is played on small courts with short rackets and larger soft balls, such as the MasterPlay®+10. Just like the real game, it gives players opportunities to have long rallies and play different shots.

Mini Tennis Orange is an intermediate game played with shorter rackets, softer balls and courts that are bigger and wider than those in the red stage. A slower orange ball, such as the MasterPlay® Mini Tennis Orange Ball, should be used giving players better control at this important stage of development as they gain confidence developing different shots and tactics.
