Court and Ball Sizes

The ITF recommend that players aged 10 and under do not train or play competition with a regular tennis ball on a full court, but instead train and compete with a Red, Orange or Green ball on the appropriate sized court. Using these slower balls will help players to develop the most efficient technique, and to implement advanced tactics, that in most cases could not be performed using the regular tennis ball on the full court.
