YOUTH TEAM TENNIS
The Roanoke Valley Tennis Association (RVTA) will again be sponsoring Youth Team Tennis this summer for our local youth. Here are a few highlights about this program:
- Open to youth ages 10 to 18.
- This is NOT a program for true beginners. Participants must be able to rally, serve, keep score, and know the rules.
- Teams are coed
- Matches consist of six one-game sets using no ad scoring for: boys/girls singles, boys/girls doubles, and mixed doubles
- Each match uses three courts, and take ~2.5 hours
- Matches will take place at various locations in the Roanoke/New River Valley (depending on who sponsors teams)
- Matches will be played outside on Tuesday evenings (6p start) from early-June through the end of July
- Cost is $25
Due to the overwhelmingly positive respond for 2022 YTT - please reach out to Sue Lunsford for more information and to register.
