Little Tennis was created to attract children to tennis, to help teaching professionals provide the best instruction and give parents a fun, active way to interact with their children on the court. Our focus is creating a fun and effective learning atmosphere.
USPTA began a serious Little Tennis campaign to target children from ages 3 to 10 in 1993. Other tennis industry groups have since added children's programs in an effort to reach the same target group. We all know that tennis is a lifetime sport, and children who play tennis will enjoy the game and its health and social benefits for decades. And, as we build successful tennis programs, all elements of the tennis family benefit.
USPTA is the world's oldest, largest and most respected trade association for tennis-teaching professionals, designing programs "for professionals, by professionals."
