BOOM TIME FOR TENNIS 10 

Tennis is growing again. In fact, in the past six years, it's the only traditional sport to see 

an increase in participation. While that's great news for the tennis industry, the governing 

bodies of the sport are working harder than ever to grow the game. Here's how.

A new format developed by the USTA aims to help get more children into the game. 

QuickStart Tennis will utilize court size, equipment and scoring that will be tailored to the

the cytf: CHANGING our WORLD, ONE PLAYER AT A TIME 

We live in a time when the issues facing the 

health and focus of youngsters are pressing and 

significant. Childhood obesity is prevalent in 

communities throughout the state and country. 

Decision-making skills for our youth are being 

tested daily regarding drugs, gangs and a host 

of other potential life-changing choices. The decisions 

a child makes today will have a profound 

effect on his or her future. 

Tennis is much more than just a healthy activity that 

promotes physical fitness. It fosters decision-making 

skills and instills self-confidence, sportsmanship and 

teamwork. It extends beyond the boundaries of age, color 

and economic background. 

Tennis provides a place for youngsters to make new acquaintances 

and strengthen existing relationships with family and 

friends – it becomes an avenue to develop relationships that 

may last a lifetime. It teaches the importance of physical, emotional 

and mental fitness; of making good choices; and 

developing good character. 

We envision communities where all kids are 

introduced to tennis in their schools, where 

they are given the opportunity to then 

get involved in after-school programs in 

elementary, middle school and 

high school. 

We believe tennis gives kids 

the tools to learn, compete 

and win in life – through proper 

practice, dedication, knowledge 

and respect. 

We need to focus on the future 

and make sound investments in 

the lives of our youth. Through 

tennis, the Colorado Youth Tennis 

Foundation is reaching out to kids 

of all ages and backgrounds in the 

hope that Colorado's kids receive 

the many benefits of tennis. 

A tennis court is a backdrop 

for unlimited possibility. 

A child who achieves success here becomes 

more self-confident in other aspects of life. 

Many children and adolescents will have 

health problems that include depression, 

anxiety, and social isolation that 

may ultimately affect their performance 

in school. 

Colorado Department Of Education 

Physical activity among adolescents is 

consistently related to higher levels of 

self esteem and lower levels of anxiety 

and stress. 

Colorado Department Of Education 

Youth who participate in sports are: 

57% less likely to drop out of school, 

49% less likely to use drugs, 37% less 

likely to be teen parents, 35% less likely 

to smoke cigarettes and 27% less likely 

to be arrested. 

Psychologist Nicholas Zill 

impacting lives 

In 1961, the Colorado Youth Tennis Foundation was 

formed to encourage and assist juniors to play tennis, 

and over the past 46 years, has helped juniors on every 

level, from nationally-ranked team Colorado players to 

grade school beginners. 

Since its formation, the CYTF has made thousands of tennis 

dreams come true for kids all over colorado. 

By providing individual player scholarships to kids and 

program grants to organizations throughout the state, the 

CYTF ensures that juniors from small rural towns as well 

as from larger metropolitan areas benefit from the sport. 

Contact the CYTF and help make a difference in a 

child's life, 303/695-4116 or COLORADOTENNIS.com. 

Its mission is to provide financial assistance to juniors 

and junior programs, giving youngsters the opportunity 

to learn and play the lifetime sport of tennis.

GRASSROOTS 

It’s boom time again for tennis. Not since the heyday 

of the sport back in the 1970s has tennis sustained such 

tremendous growth. In fact, according to a recent study by 

the Sporting Goods Manufacturers Association, tennis has 

grown more than 12% in the last six years, the only traditional 

sport to experience positive growth. 

behind the numbers 

The survey reflects the introduction of numerous initiatives 

by the USTA and the efforts of the many associations at the 

grassroots level who are responsible for growing the game. 

It shows that the efforts put in by local communities and all 

who are passionate about tennis are paving the way for a 

whole new generation of players who are discovering the 

sport. 

Community tennis associations, schools, National Junior 

Tennis League programs, parks & recreation agencies and 

other community-based organizations throughout the state 

are often times the entry gate for the new or returning tennis 

player. These are the places making tennis accessible and 

available to communities. Tennis enthusiasts within these 

organizations serve as advocates, program administrators, 

promoters and fundraisers. These individuals and organizations 

are the backbone of the USTA as they also provide 

leadership in organizing and promoting tennis leagues and 

instructional programs that ensure access to and growth 

within the sport of tennis at the recreational level. 


The Northern Colorado Open is one of Colorado's 

premier wheelchair tournaments. 

The Heritage High School Boy's tennis squad attend a 

Block Party for inner city teens at Manual High School. 

Tennis for everybody 

It can also be argued that the focused outreach efforts of 

USTA Colorado to be more inclusive of all in 

the community is certainly laying the groundwork 

to keep tennis participation moving in a 

positive direction here in Colorado. Tennis is 

for everyone and the game of tennis can be 

adapted to accommodate any age, environment, 

condition or disability. Clinics, tournaments 

and scholarships from the Colorado 

Wheelchair Tennis Foundation with assistance 

from USTA Colorado make tennis accessible 

to the physically disabled (visit CWTF.net to 

learn more). In particular, the Rocky Mountain 

Wheelchair Open at Gates Tennis Center July 11-13 is sure 

to be the beginning of a great Colorado tennis tradition this 

year! Developmentally disabled individuals have incredible 

support through Special Olympics Colorado to learn and 

compete in tennis locally and nationally. A Tennis Block Party 

specifically geared towards individuals with disabilities of 

any kind is taking place at Mullen High School on May 17 

along with a workshop for players and instructors interested 

in learning adaptive tennis techniques. 

By making diversity awareness and education a high priority 

in all aspects of our organization, committees and board 

operations, the governing body for the sport in Colorado 

is becoming an even stronger organization and community 

leader. Diversity is here, it’s inclusiveness that is often lacking. 

The USTA Colorado Multicultural Diversity Plan guides 

us on this journey towards inclusiveness at all levels of tennis. 

The expansion of the USTA Colorado staff in 2007 to 

include a Diversity Coordinator, Elle Salinas, reflects a strong 

Diversity is here.

USTA Colorado 

celebrates diversity

commitment to making tennis more inclusive and welcoming 

of people from all backgrounds in Colorado. An exuberant 

public relations campaign is taking place 

which involves a strong community presence 

– talking to people one-on-one, raising awareness, 

asking questions, developing allies, supporting 

and getting support. We are excited to 

celebrate the various rich cultural backgrounds 

represented in Colorado on the tennis court at 

the inaugural Diversity Tennis Fest/Tournament 

in July 2008, and we have many other exciting 

activities planned to impact minority youth 

and adults through tennis. 

equipment donation 

Racquets for All is being launched in 2008 to bring the 

unparalleled benefits of tennis to those throughout the state 

of Colorado who are unable to play due to lack of access 

to adequate tennis equipment. Gently used tennis equipment 

is being collected by volunteers from tennis players at tennis 

clubs, parks, schools and other places, refurbished and then 

distributed to organizations and individuals in need of such 

equipment. Get your community involved and give us a call 

to get started on the collection efforts. For those organizations 

in need of equipment, an equipment request will soon be 

available at COLORADOTENNIS.com and should be submitted 

for consideration.

Volunteer driven community tennis associations (CTAs), like 

Eastside Tennis Association in NE Denver and the Fort Collins 

Tennis Association, have received grants to support youth tennis 

program development and scholarships for junior players 

and organization leaders to attend life-changing workshops 

and camps. Find out more about CTAs located throughout the 

state by visiting COLORADOTENNIS.com and selecting the 

Community section. There you will find links to all registered 

CTAs in Colorado wanting to hear from tennis enthusiasts in 

their areas. If you are interested in starting a new CTA or want 

to improve your existing one you may find some new ideas 

simply by previewing other CTA's websites. 

Some CTAs are also reaching out to youngsters who may not 

otherwise have the opportunity to play tennis and have joined 

the nation-wide network of National Junior Tennis League. 

Net Results Junior Tennis in Denver is one example of an NJTL 

program that is instilling the values of leadership and academic 

excellence in youngsters and giving kids an opportunity to develop tennis skills. The Arthur Ashe Essay contest, Tennis 

Leadership Camp and Regional Rallies are all benefits unique to registered NJTL programs. 

it starts in the parks 

With nearly 70% of all tennis being played on public courts, park and recreation agencies are a critical partner for USTA 

Colorado. The Tennis in the Parks (TIP) initiative is a national partnership between National Recreation & Parks Association 

(NRPA) and the USTA that supports local parks and recreation 

agencies that are enthusiastic about increasing tennis participation 

in their communities. Participating agencies across 

Colorado are seeing increases in tennis participation as a result 

of the support and benefits provided to them, along with their 

communities’ interest in the lifetime sport of tennis. TIP also 

focuses on making sure that public tennis infrastructure is in optimum 

condition through USTA Public Facility Funding as well as 

assistance in developing an advocacy agenda to support tennis 

in communities’ master planning process. Utah Park in Aurora, 

Redstone Park in Highlands Ranch, Littleton Golf & Tennis Center 

and Rolland Moore Racquet Complex in Fort Collins are just a 

few past winners of USTA’s Outstanding Facility award reflecting 

the high quality public tennis facilities that are available to 

Colorado residents. We expect TIP participation to increase in 

2008 through the committed efforts of existing programs and the 

addition of new agencies. 

advocacy & infrastructure 

The advocacy efforts of committed citizens like those in 

Durango, Grand Junction, Montrose and Longmont, just to name 

a few, have resulted in building stronger communities by offering 

healthy activities like tennis. CTAs often lead the way in building 

partnerships with their local parks and recreation agencies and

schools to make the incredible benefits of tennis more extensively 

available to their communities through increased and/or 

improved tennis facilities and programs. When Canyon View 

Park in Grand Junction was built in 2004, six new tennis courts 

were included in the park plan as a result of advocacy efforts 

from the local CTA working with the City of Grand Junction. 

They did not stop there, however, and by the end of 2008 the 

park will be home to a total of twelve beautiful tennis courts 

(along with bathrooms and a shelter) that are consistently used 

for local ladders, tournaments, leagues and lessons. USTA 

Colorado contributed to the facility through matching Adopt- 

A-Court grant funding for bench/shade shelters in between 

the tennis courts. The USTA is here to assist tennis advocates 

in their efforts to ensure enough quality public tennis facilities 

exist in communities.

the sport of tennis to their students through PE which means 

an estimated 110,000 youngsters have access to the comprehensive, 

lifetime benefits afforded by the sport of tennis. 

Tennis is the ideal sport to help schools achieve their health 

and wellness goals. Our commitment to helping kids learn a 

lifetime sport – as well as self-confidence, sportsmanship and 

the habits of an active, healthy lifestyle – is backed by numerous 

resources for physical educators and after school program 

providers. We want to ensure that all kids have an opportunity 

to play and learn this lifetime sport. USTA Colorado is helping 

school districts implement tennis programming and build a selfsustaining 

tennis program for their school community with topnotch 

training by professionals, a comprehensive curriculum 

kit, technical expertise and discounted tennis equipment. Find

investing at grassroots levels 

Schools, parks and recreation agencies, youth-service providers, 

CTAs and nursing homes are just some of the places 

where USTA Colorado has planted the seeds of tennis through 

grants, totaling more than $35,000 in 2007! Twice a year 

(April 1 and October 1 deadlines) USTA Colorado and the 

Colorado Youth Tennis Foundation accept grant applications 

from organizations located in rural, mountain, city and suburban 

Colorado communities that are seeking dollars to get 

a program started or to expand the scope of an existing tennis 

program. Funds specifically earmarked for adult/senior, 

adaptive, multicultural participation and youth ensure financial 

support is available for programs reaching any component

Some welcomed challenges that come along with this 

increased participation include having enough volunteers 

and people working with us to bring tennis to all corners of 

the state. Diversity efforts are going strong and we welcome 

more individuals getting involved with this initiative. 

We are also doing all we can to ensure enough quality 

tennis instructors/staff are equipped to introduce tennis 

to entry-level players. USTA Colorado is doing its best to 

develop quality instructors who have the tools to develop 

structure tennis programs around the state. We are constantly 

seeking enthusiastic tennis players and instructors who want 

to get involved with community-based tennis programs on 

a volunteer basis. To support these individuals, at least four 

Recreational Coach Workshops are scheduled during the 

first half of 2008 to provide tennis instruction and coaching 

to recreational tennis instructors and coaches in a 6-hour on 

court format. Organized Play Workshops are a new 90-120 

minute training that teaches games-based formats to those 

focused on extracurricular, school-based tennis programs.

juniors 

at usta colorado, 

we believe Every child 

Should learn how 

to play tennis 

Nearly 20% 

of children 6-8 

are overweight, 

which astonishingly 

has 

increased nearly 

200% over the past three decades. Many 

experts believe this is due in part to children 

not being regularly active in sports or other 

physically enduring games. Tennis is a sport that 

develops all the most important motor and coordinative 

skills from an early age. It requires and 

develops agility, speed and endurance. All of 

these skills will benefit a child's long-term health 

and performance in all sports. 

Tennis is a technically demanding sport. To 

improve, a child has to be able to concentrate 

well and apply themselves to the many challenges 

that the game brings. As an individual sport, 

tennis requires and develops confidence and the 

ability to cope with and perform under pressure. 

You have to be able to bounce back from disappointments, 

cope with success and, occasionally, 

failure. The fantastic news for parents (and kids) 

is that research has shown that children who 

develop these skills through sport can transfer 

them into other areas of their lives. 

Tennis provides children with a place they can 

go and be independent, meet friends and be 

active. It also provides children with a way of 

meeting new friends whenever they move to a 

new area. Whether it is moving to a new school 

or to a new job, the local tennis court will always 

provide great social opportunities. 

Tennis is a game that you can play your entire 

life. Most people retire from highly physical 

sports – particularly those that involve contact – 

fairly early in their lives. Tennis allows you to be 

active for much longer than most other sports. 

Family time can revolve around a tennis match. 

There are few sports that offer the opportunity to 

play with your kids, side by side, as they grow 

older. Much has been written about how an 

afternoon of tennis provides a chance for families 

to spend time together outside of the chaos 

of everyday life. 

Tennis is gender and skill level neutral. Mixed 

crowds and players of varying skill levels can all 

get along and enjoy the opportunity to get some 

exercise and have fun together.

Today, kids have more options than ever for what to do with their free time. Tennis 

no longer has to compete with other traditional sports alone. The marketplace in 

the sporting world has continued to grow exponentially with the rise of “extreme” 

and other non-traditional sports. And, of course, in addition to athletics, tennis goes 

head-to-head with technology – including computers, the internet, video games, 

and iPods. 

Tennis is just one sport that can get children physically fit (as it works out the arms, 

legs and cardiovascular), but tennis is also a sport that has psychological benefits 

to go with it. 

INTRODUCING THE QUICKSTART TENNIS FORMAT 

the new way to play for kids 10 and under 

Studies have indicated that those taking part in sports activities on a regular 

basis showed an increase in academic performance and memory. Scientists at the 

University of Illinois found that tennis might actually generate new connections 

between the nerves in the brain, due to the sport’s requirement of alertness and 

tactical thinking. 

The vast array of play choices for children means that tennis has to be – more 

than ever before – especially accessible, fun and easy to play. To get children into 

the game and to keep them playing, there needs to be a fast and fun way for them 

to get started.

TRY THIS ON FOR SIZE 

QuickStart utilizes two 

court sizes to maximize 

the players' enjoyment and 

skill development. 

The 8 & unders use onehalf 

of a doubles court (see 

diagram). At 36'x18' and 

with a shorter net (2'9"), 

kids find it easier to sustain 

a rally and develop 

angles at a much earlier 

age. One bonus for busy 

facilities: four matches can 

be going simultaneously in 

this setup. 

The 10 & unders utilize 

the full court, but with temporary 

lines trimming the 

overall area back (60’x21’ 

singles, 60’x27’ doubles), 

virtually cutting in half the 

amount of court a developing 

player has to cover.

QuickStart. After all, the majority of 

youth sports have followed this very 

formula for years. Baseball begins 

with smaller bats, smaller fields, and 

progresses from tee ball, to coach 

pitch, to player pitch. Basketball and 

soccer also utilize similar methods, 

including shortened playing surfaces 

and age- and size-appropriate equipment. 

By being introduced to this style 

of play from the start, children gain 

confidence by seeing their immediate 

progress, and will therefore have a 

desire to keep playing. 

To further emphasize the importance 

of properly sized equipment 

and courts, the QuickStart format is 

broken down into two age groups: 8 

& under and 10 & under. 

For children 8 & under, the size of 

the court will be 36’ x 18’. The set-up 

utilizes doubles sidelines as the basefrom 

page 17 

With this in mind, the USTA – with 

input and support from the Tennis 

Industry Association, PTR, USPTA, and 

NRPA – has developed a new play format 

aimed at children 10 & under, with 

the express purpose of getting them in 

the game, playing quickly, and keeping 

them in the game. 

This new format, QuickStart Tennis, 

will launch officially in March 2008. 

QuickStart will utilize court size, equipment 

(racquets and balls) and scoring 

that will be tailored to the age and size 

of the children playing. 

“The QuickStart format is tennis 

scaled to the size of the child, utilizing 

age approp¸riate equipment, including 

smaller racquets, lower bouncing 

balls, and smaller courts,” said USTA'S 

Kurt Kamperman, Chief Executive, 

Community Tennis. “By enabling kids to 

start playing right away, we are allowing 

them to learn as they play.” 

Indeed, that idea is the core of 

Many aspects of the QuickStart 

Tennis format have been utilized 

before. Transition balls and smaller 

courts have been seen around tennis 

for years. But, aligning these 

elements with age, racquet size 

and scoring methods is what makes 

this format different, and more 

effective.

lines, and from the baseline to the service 

line as the new sidelines. Racquets 

will be up to 23” in size, making them 

easier to control than larger-sized racquets. 

The balls, either a foam ball or 

a very low compression ball, will also 

match the abilities of the child, bouncing 

lower and traveling less distance. 

This will teach the child to have proper 

swing technique, with the ball bouncing 

into their “comfort zones.” The net 

height will be 2’ 9”, making it easier for 

the child to continue the rally. Finally, 

scoring is brought down to a much simpler 

level – best of three games, with the 

first player to win seven points winning 

the game – and a shorter time. 

For children 10 & under, the size of 

the court will be 60’ x 21’ (60’ x 27’ for 

doubles). The racquet will be up to 25” 

in size, still manageable, but increasing 

with their body-size and age. The ball, 

a low-compression ball, travels a little 

faster and farther than the ball utilized 

by the 8 & under group. It will still have 

a lower bounce than the standard tennis 

ball. Scoring becomes best of three 

sets, with 4 games winning a set, and 

the third set being first to 7 points (if 

necessary). 

“The beauty of the QuickStart Tennis 

format is that it brings the kids into the 

game immediately and gets them rallying 

by the end of their first time out on 

the court, because the game is finally 

brought to their size and speed” said 

Kirk Anderson, Director, Recreational 

Coaches & Programs, USTA. “The format 

is easily incorporated into any existing 

programming, from lesson plans to 

competition, which allows for this to 

integrate into all facets of tennis.” 

That is obviously essential, because it 

does not mean that new lesson plans, 

new programming and new competitions 

have to be created. QuickStart 

just enables kids to have more quality 

experiences early on, which keeps them 

in the game. And more kids in the game 

obviously equates to more kids on the 

courts. 

That’s another benefit of QuickStart. It 

allows for more kids to be on the court 

at once. This is because facilities can 

put multiple 36’ courts onto a regulation 

court at once. In fact, one could have as 

many as six 36’ courts on one regulation 

court at once. On both sides of the 

court you could have: (1) net to service 

line, (2) service line to baseline and (3) 

baseline to the edge of the backcourt. 

And by getting more kids playing 

more quickly in a more enjoyable environment, 

QuickStart ought to prove an 

effective tool in increasing participation. 

By having more kids in the game, 

it’s possible to have more high level 

players down the road. 

“QuickStart will make a significant 

impact on the skill development of 

players in the United States,” said 

Paul Roetert, Managing Director, Player 

Tennis. College. You.

Development, USTA. “By bringing 

more kids into the game at a young 

age, and by providing them with a 

play format that helps them to utilize 

proper stroke technique and overall 

skill development, we will increase the 

pool of high level players throughout 

the country.” 

Many aspects of QuickStart have 

been utilized before. Transition balls 

and smaller courts have been seen 

around tennis for years. But aligning 

these elements with age, racquet size 

and scoring methods is what makes 

this format different, and more effective. 

“Pros have been using slower balls 

and smaller courts for years, but this 

will help to set standard specifications 

that can be consistent whenever 

the QuickStart format is used, which 

has never been done before,” said 

Kamperman. “What is also important 

is that in the past the use of different 

equipment or shortened courts was 

only used in lesson plans, but our goal 

is to have this format incorporated into 

all aspects of youth tennis, including 

competition.” 

QuickStart will roll-out in 2008 

in over 1,000 facilities, which are 

expected to incorporate it within their 

existing 10 & under programming. 

In the upcoming year the USTA will 

work with the PTR to organize and 

implement training sessions, both to 

coaches and volunteers including parents, 

to help proliferate the format. 

In addition, the USTA has begun 

incorporating the format into USTA 

Junior Team Tennis, and its tournament 

offerings. In succeeding years, it will 

continue to be implemented into programming 

with the goal of reaching 

all aspects of 10 & under youth tennis, 

including tournament, lesson based, 

recreational and team play.

tennis is the sport for a lifetime. 

adult league information

whatever your age and skill, you can benefit from the many 

health and social benefits tennis has to offer. 

Why do you play tennis 

Do you enjoy it for the fun, the friendships or the competition Or do you just love 

a good workout Whatever your personal motives are, you're one of the half million 

people in Colorado who enjoy tennis, just one of the reasons Colorado is routinely 

named as the nation's healthiest state. 

Tennis is fun. It can also be challenging, especially if you’re just learning, but it is 

also a sport in which lessons, practice and persistence pay off quickly. 

Tennis is a sport you can enjoy playing on a team, as an individual or with your 

family. You can escape from life’s stresses and it offers a great opportunity to socialize, 

particularly if you join a local club or frequent public courts. 

It's also a great way to keep in shape. It improves flexibility, stamina, speed, strength 

and hand-eye coordination. It exercises all major muscle groups, providing a full-body 

workout. Even if you only play a couple of times a week you can feel the benefit. In 

just 30 minutes you will be burning about 150 calories, depending on the intensity. 

And perhaps the best part is, it doesn't cost a lot. For about the cost of a single day 

skiing, you can join a tennis league and play for the entire summer, and still have 

money left over to buy a round for all your new friends that you met on the court. 

We invite you to get on court today! USTA Colorado offers numerous adult league 

opportunities for players of every age – 19 and older as of 12/31/2008, unless 

otherwise noted – and every ability level (beginner through expert).

complete description of the National Tennis Rating 

Program, please visit COLORADOTENNIS.com) so 

players are assured of competing against opponents 

of comparable ability, which keeps the game lively 

and the atmosphere social. And as part of a team, 

you've got a built-in support entourage that few tour 

pros can match. Whether you're a beginner or an 

experienced netter, we've got a team for players like 

you. 

USTA Colorado also offers several senior leagues 

for those who want to “act their age.” Players 50 and 

older (or turning 50 by 12/31/2008) are invited

sportsmanship 

Kids learn the basics of sportsmanship from their peers, older players, and 

especially their parents and coaches. Kids who see others behaving in a sportsmanlike 

way come to understand that the real winners in sports are those who 

know how to persevere and behave with dignity – win or lose. 

Parents and mentors can help their kids understand that good sportsmanship 

includes both small gestures and heroic efforts. It starts with something as simple 

as shaking hands with opponents before a match and includes acknowledging 

good shots made by others and accepting bad calls gracefully. Displaying good 

sportsmanship isn’t always easy: It can be tough to congratulate the opposing 

player after losing a close or important match. But the kids who learn how to do 

it will benefit in many ways. 

A child who bullies or taunts others on the court isn’t likely to change the behavior 

when in the classroom or in social situations. In the same way, a child 

who practices good sportsmanship is likely to carry the respect and appreciation 

of other people into every other aspect of life. 

HONOR THE GAME: 

Watch your thoughts, 

for they become words. 

Choose your words, 

for they become actions. 

Understand your actions, 

for they become habits. 

Study your habits, 

for they become your character. 

Develop your character, 

for it becomes your destiny. 

TRUSTWORTHINESS • RESPECT • RESPONSIBILITY • FAIRNESS • SPORTSMANSHIP 

Adults, nab a punk! 

Kids, grab a relic!

tournament tennis 101: 

your guide to tournament play in colorado 

For many players, 

the word tournament 

conjures up images of 

professional athletes 

slugging it out on a 

far-away continent in 

front of thousands of 

fans and with millions 

of dollars on the line. 

But for the vast 

majority of players, 

tournament tennis 

is really about sowing 

their competitive 

oats at a local event, 

far removed from 

the cameras and the 

throngs of cheering 

spectators. 

In fact, most of the 

crowds at these events 

consist of parents, children, husbands 

and wives and perhaps a handful of 

friends and other familiar faces. The 

environment is competitive, but nurturing. 

Tournaments also provide a 

chance to meet new friends, see old 

acquaintances, and get in a great 

workout. Some events even host 

player barbecues and dish out cool 

giveaways. A growing number of 

junior events provide lunch, a player 

pool party and a full day’s worth of 

scheduled match play, so you can 

plan your life around the event. 

The 2008 Colorado Sanctioned 

Tournament Schedule lists nearly 150 

events that will test your skills, provide 

you the chance to meet new 

people, and give you the opportunity 

to change it up from your everyday 

social matches and weekly league 

play. Tournaments exist to provide a 

meaningful and inspiring experience 

to all entrants, with lots of good competition 

so that everyone will continue 

to play and enjoy the game. 

Sanctioned Tournaments & membership:

finding the right event: 

Many factors can help determine the right event for you or 

your child. Age, skill level, fitness and length of tournament 

can all be deciding factors in detemining which tournaments 

you should entert. Here's some basic information about the 

types of events Colorado has to offer: 

Junior Novice: 

Novice events offer juniors the opportunity to experience 

tournament play and competition in a supportive and nonthreatening 

environment. 

Novice players have no previous competitive experience in 

tournament play (above the novice level), and have typically 

played tennis for two years or less. Because these events 

are non-sanctioned, a USTA membership is not required and 

results do not count towards rankings. 

Junior Satellite: 

Satellite events offer junior players the opportunity to experience 

the next level of competitive play. Acting as a bridge 

between Novice and Championship-level events, Satellite 

events cater to players with one to three years of beginning 

competitive experience (i.e., novice tournaments, CARA, novice 

or intermediate USTA Junior Team Tennis play). Once a 

player has gained confidence in novice tournaments, or has 

won a total of three different novice events in any combination 

of singles, doubles, or mixed, that player can reasonably 

compete at the Satellite level. 

A player is ineligible for the Satellite level play if: 

1. Player attained a National or Sectional (Intermountain 

region) ranking the previous year; 

2. Player reached: 

a) the quarterfinals of a Designated Championship 

tournament (in-district), or 

b) the semifinals of any sanctioned Championship 

tournament event (in-district). 

A Satellite Ineligibility List will be published annually based 

on the prior year’s results. The Seeding & Ranking Committee 

periodically may determine additional players to be ineligible 

for Satellite level play based on recent Championship or 

Satellite tournament results. Players are strongly encouraged 

to play within their age group in the Championship level 

tournament tennis 101: 

colorado tournament event guide 

rather than playing up an age group in the Satellite level. 

The Seeding and Ranking Committee will consider written 

appeals from players for the Satellite ineligible list until April 

14, 2008. 

Junior Championship: 

The Championship level is designed for the junior player 

who is seeking the highest level of junior competition in 

Colorado. Satellite players who are seeking more advanced 

tournament play may also compete at this level. 

Players listed on the 2008 Satellite Ineligible List – published 

on coloradotennis.com in March 2008 – are 

required to play at this level. Juniors seeking to compete at 

the Sectional and National levels are encouraged to compete 

in Championship-level events. 

NTRP Events: 

Designed to pit players of compatible skill against one 

another. NTRP levels range from 2.5 to 5.0 Note: players 

rated above 5.0 are required to play in the Open division; 

any junior player 18 & under MUST play in the Open division, 

unless the player turns 19 by December 31, 2008. 

They are then eligible to compete in an NTRP event, but must 

contact the Tournament Director for entry. 

You may play at or above your specific NTRP level, but not 

below your rating. If you don't have a current rating, you 

may self-rate and play in that division. For information on 

NTRP ratings, see COLORADOTENNIS.com. 

Senior Events: 

Also called age division events, these pit players 30 and 

older against similarly aged competitors. But be aware: there 

are no skill parameters in Senior Events. A player in the 

draw may be an expert, a novice, or anywhere in between. 

Players must be of division age by December 31, 2008, and 

may not play in an older division.

questions or you need additional information, please contact

Hit COLORADOTENNIS.com and use the “Helpful

can search by tournament name, or division. You can 

also look for tournaments in progress, those open for 

registration and completed tournaments. Finding a 

court has never been easier. Click “Find a Court”, type 

in the name of the facility and Bob's Your Uncle. It's 

like having an EASY button.

hey, that kid isn't old enough to play ntrp! 

Any player that is 18 years-old, but will be turning 19 

by Dec. 31, 2008, is eligible to participate in Adult NTRP 

events. But there's a catch for 18s who want to register for 

an event: TennisLink is not set up to accommodate you, so 

you must contact the tournament director to register for the 

event. They will happily enter you into the draw.

Finding important information is easy at 

COLORADOTENNIS.com. 

Just use the "Helpful Links" dropdown menu 

to help you register for a tournament, view 

draws, FIND a court, check your standings and 

much more. 

verify all tournament information online 

Players are encouraged to verify all tournament information 

online. Look for draw times, weather announcements, schedule 

changes, hotel information etc. Tournament directors will 

try to update information whenever possible. 

verify all draw times 

It is the players’ responsibility to obtain and verify all match 

times. Check the event's online listing two days prior to the 

start of the event, or verify with tournament staff. 

tennislink/active.com fee 

Last year, all TennisLink events 

joined the Active.com network, 

resulting in a processing fee of 

$3 per event entry. For example, if a tournament charges 

$25 for a singles event, you will be charged $28 for that 

event. Please note this is an Active.com fee, not a fee 

charged by the tournament. 

know and observe "the code" 

If you have not already done so, try and familiarize yourself 

with “The Code” (see next page). This can help if any issues 

or questions arise during a match and there is not an umpire 

on site. You can find the code in the Friend at Court or 

online at COLORADOTENNIS.com. 

Finish the list on page 64 


the tennis code 

a guide to match etiquette 

About the Code: 

the code is a summary of procedures and unwritten 

rules that tradition dictates players and spectators 

should follow. The Code is not part of the official rules 

of tennis, but all players should be aware of and follow 

the code during all unofficiated matches. 

If you and your opponent follow the rules of tennis and 

treat each other with respect, you'll both get the most 

enjoyment from the game, regardless of who wins. 

Talk quietly when standing near 

tennis courts that are in use. 

Don't walk across the back 

of another court until the 

players have finished playing 

a point. 

This can be distracting to 

them and affect their play. 

If people are using your court, don't 

disturb them until their time is up. 

Keep the game moving. 

Don't stall and waste 

time between points. 

Accept all calls made by 

your opponent – without 

arguing or sulking. 

Keep a positive outlook 

throughout the match. 

Remember, you're playing 

for the fun of it. 

If your balls goes into the next court, wait until the 

players on that court finish the point before you ask for 

the ball. If a ball comes onto your court, return it as 

soon as play has stopped on both courts. 

After the last point, come to the net 

quickly and shake hands. Let your opponent 

know that you appreciated the match, no 

matter what the coutcome. 

If there is a disagreement on the score, go back to the last score 

you both agree on. To avoid the problem, the server should call 

out the score prior to each serve.

ankings requirements 

colorado rankings shift to points per round 

Beginning in 2008, all Senior, NTRP, Championship, Family events, and Junior 

Satellite tournaments will be utilizing a Points Per Round (PPR) system to determine 

Colorado rankings (Junior Championship made the switch to PPR in 2007). 

PPR is very simple process. Players earn points for each win, plus earn bonus points 

for wins over “Top 20” players. Sanctioned events are broken down to Designated/ 

Level 1 and non-Designated/Level 2 tournaments (see chart below). 

Level 1 tournaments carry more points than Level 2 events.

necessary or appropriate.

points per round and the competitive junior 

navigating the points per round system 

Last year, USTA Colorado switched to 

a Points Per Round (PPR) ranking system 

for all Colorado Junior Championship 

Events. Both the USTA and Intermountain 

Section – as well as most USTA Sections 

nationwide – had adopted this system, 

and the switch made Colorado events 

consistent with those tournaments at the 

National and Sectional levels (see page 

38 for a synopsis of the PPR system). 

pros & cons 

According to Bethany Schott, Player 

Development Coordinator for the USTA/ 

Intermountain Section, the move to PPR 

is a positive step for players and tournaments 

alike. 

"There are a bunch of advantages for 

players and tournaments at the District 

level," says Schott, "including increased 

tournament participation, streamlined 

and consistent rankings, and finally, 

players can't hide in this system – in 

order to generate a ranking, players will 

have to compete." 

But as with any change, there will 

likely be some growing pains. 

"Many junior players will be playing 

up a level rather than their actual age," 

she explains. "It may be hard to get a 

true reflection of a player's ranking in 

the lower or higher age divisions (based 

on where they play the majority of their 

tournaments)." 

The way the CTA will counteract this 

is that the points will carry down. Thus, 

if a 14 year-old player was playing in 

all 16s tournaments, those tournaments 

would show up on their 14s and 16s 

record. 

The rumor that PPR only benefits the 

wealthy who can travel to tournaments 

and "chase points" is not a concern in 

our Section and District, says Schott. 

We only count the top five results in a 

12-month period, so an average player 

that plays in every tournament does not 

have advantage over a great player 

who does well in six or seven major 

tournaments. 

According to Schott, the biggest challenge 

with PPR is aging up. 

Aging Up 

Deciding when to start playing up 

(or playing in an age division higher 

than yours) is a common dilemma that 

many parents and players face when 

deciding on their tournament schedule 

for the year. 

The best way to answer the question 

is to determine what your goals 

are as a junior player. Are you a 

recreational player that enjoys participating 

in local Colorado tournaments 

only Or is it your goal to travel 

to different tournaments around the 

Section with the hopes of earning an 

Intermountain or National ranking 

If you lean toward the recreational 

side, you should continue playing at 

the local level, and play in the higher 

age division when you feel you need 

better competition. If you have aspirations 

of making it big on the Sectional 

or National level, Schott has compiled 

some ideas for you to consider. 

First, identify when your birthday 

lands in respect to the Intermountain 

Sectional tournaments. Next, determine 

when you are hoping to move 

up in the age division. From that point 

on you will need to determine when 

to start playing in the higher age division. 

"I would recommend playing up 

at District tournaments at least 6-9 

months in advance, if not sooner," 

says Schott. 

District tournaments are a fantastic 

way to play up an age division. These 

results will improve your standings in 

both your current age division and the 

higher age division (as points carry 

down). In some District tournaments it 

is also acceptable for you to play in 

two age divisions, with both of those 

events counting toward your point 

standings. 

Getting accepted into the ITA Circuit 

tournaments is very competitive. There 

is a 32-player limit in each age, so it 

is imperative that you start working 

on improving your ITA Standing well 

in advance. Keep in mind that none 

of your points will carry up to your 

higher age division. You must start 

over. 

Once you get five solid District 

tournaments on your Intermountain 

record, you should be sitting well for 

most of the Circuit events. The Easter 

Circuit is a 64-player draw, which 

makes it a good event at which to 

age up. In addition, the Section has 

added a 16s and 18s age division 

at the Memorial Day Circuit so it will 

be easier to get into that tournament 

as well. Our recommendation would 

be to have played at least one Circuit 

tournament prior to applying into a 

Sectional tournament. 

Remember, the better you do in the 

District tournaments, the better your 

chances are at getting into the ITA 

Circuit and Sectional tournaments.

wheelchair tournaments in Colorado – Valerie Walls Memorial (Boulder), 

Northern Colorado (Fort Collins), Rocky Mountain Wheelchair Open (Denver) 

and Highlands Ranch. If a player earned a national ranking and played in at

what every tournament 

player needs to know 

(from page 36) 

keep your information 

current with the usta 

In addition to ensuring that you'll 

receive your Big Book and other 

vital Colorado Tennis publications, 

keeping the USTA up to date on 

your contact info is very helpful to 

tournament directors in case they 

need to reach you for any reason 

during an event (see Rain Delay, 

Default, etc.)

Review Committee is coverting

Seedings for Colorado events 

reflect the most current published 

Standing Lists. If Joe Smith is #1 in 

Men’s 4.0 singles, he will be seeded 

#1 in that event. Also, please 

note that a tournament director 

and/or committee can alter the 

schedule or scoring format due to

minutes prior to your first match. 

This can help in getting matches 

on earlier if courts are available 

and is very much appreciated by 

tournament staff. 

warming up on 

tournament day 

Not many events boast open 

courts during the tournament, so 

any warm-up prior to a match 

should be done at a different 

location. Use the Court Locator 

at COLORADOTENNIS.com to 

find public courts near the site to 

warm-up prior to your match. 

COME PREPARED with 

the essentials 

Don’t assume all sites have water 

on the courts. Come prepared 

with plenty of fresh water, a 

hat and sunscreen, especially for 

those hot summertime matches. 

Players of all levels should come 

prepared to every match with 

at least two freshly strung tennis 

racquets. If you break a string 

or even a racquet it is always 

reassuring to know that you have 

a back up that you feel comfortable 

with. This also helps to 

ensure matches remain on time 

and don’t cause delays looking 

to borrow or demo racquets. Showing up without the essentials 

could easily mean the difference between winning and 

losing. 

The USTA Colorado offices are being vacated as we are relocating to 

Gates Tennis Center. The space has been home to the CTA for 4 years 

and before that housed Make A Wish Foundation. 

Unique office environment in park like setting with lush landscaping, streams & 

ponds. Adjacent to the Highline Canal, with jogging and bicycle trails just outside 

your door. Patios & decks in many units. Individual exterior entrances, individually 

controlled HVAC units & operable windows. Excellent access to Cherry 

Creek & the suburbs through Parker Road. See BARTELLRE.com for details.

NOT RECYCLING THIS MAGAZINE 

WILL CREATE MORE LANDFILL THAN 

OUR ENTIRE FACTORY. 

At Subaru, our automotive plant in Indiana was the first in America 

to achieve zero landfill status – meaning 99% of all our waste is 

recycled. The remaining 1% is turned into electricity. 

It was also the first in the U.S. to be designated a wildlife 

habitat. The Subaru Outback, ® Forester, ® and Legacy ® are also 

certified EPA SmartWay vehicles* and available as Partial Zero 

Emissions Vehicles (PZEV)** – which in some instances boast 

emissions that are actually cleaner than the air we breathe in. 

Of course, the safety of road-gripping All-Wheel Drive is 

standard on every Subaru we make. subaru.com. 

Always ready. It’s what makes a Subaru, a Subaru. 

® 

*Select Forester 2.5 X, Legacy 2.5 i and Outback 2.5 i models only. **Partial Zero Emissions warranty only applies in certain states. For complete warranty information, see your dealer.
