Programs
High-performance and junior competitive programming for tournament players in Local, National, International and ITF events, with junior team championships and results such as U10 Team Nationals winners, U12 Canada Nationals Team Championships winners, Junior Rogers Cup champions, and Ontario provincial and national placements. Players are required to train at least 3 times per week and play OTA tournaments at times during the year.
Junior programs include Red Tennis for ages 5–8 and Orange Tennis for ages 6–10, with FUNdamentals and Developing streams, plus a Performance stream for older/more advanced players. Programs use game-based learning, group training, and weekly hours ranging from 1 to 10 depending on level.
Group lessons are offered in the junior red and orange programs, with 1 hour per week for one red stream, 2–3 hours per week for another red stream, and 2, 4–6, or 8–10 hours per week in the orange program depending on stream. The approach is game-based and uses teaching aids such as cones, FitLight, skipping ropes, medicine balls, swiss balls, and ball machines.
