VJTTA has reorganized its Junior Team Tennis League for the 2009
Winter Program. We have modified the age groupings and now will enroll
only two groups: those from 8-12 years of age, and those from 13-16 years
of age.
We have also adopted a “Triples” format for all league play. Triples is
a faster moving format in terms of player rotation, and it can
accommodate more players more efficiently. It also is a better format
for practicing beginning tennis skills. In addition, we have limited the size of
our teams, so there will be more playing and less standing around. All in all, these improvements will lead to a more successful, enjoyable VJTTA. More Tennis, More Fun. We hope you can join us for the 2009 Winter Progam!
We have created Major and Minor league divisions for our players. This
division will allow better players to begin match play earlier, while
helping less-experienced players gain their tennis skills in a more
relaxed setting.
Finally, following experience elsewhere with junior team tennis
programs, we have decided to hire professional coaching to assist us in
developing our players' skills.
We are excited about these new changes and believe they will contribute
to a more successful VJTTA future: more tennis, more fun. We hope you
will join us!
