The USTA’s Quick Start Tennis is a graduated length system with two stages of play before progressing to a 72-foot full court: The
fi rst stage for beginning players advocates a 36-foot long court. The second stage is a 60’ court. The balls recommended for this
36-foot red stage court are the softball size red-colored “Quick Start 36 Foam” OR the red-colored “Quick Start 36” low-compression balls, which are 15% larger than regular tennis balls. These balls rebound slowly off the racquet and lower off the ground, allowing the children to swing freely while still controlling the balls with more success. NOTE: Regular tennis balls bounce too quickly to play tennis on the slick floors of gymnasiums, but the slowest bouncing 36-foot stage balls are hardly affected and maintain their slow-bouncing characteristics. Using the space you already have, these packs provide all the equipment you need to set up nine tennis courts by dividing your full size court into smaller ones. You can set up six small courts (36’) within the area used for a full sized court - allowing up to 12 players. Playing on smaller courts results in increased ball control, access and skill building. Choose from two packs – The Basic Package includes: 6 domes, 6 poles, 1000’ roll of tennis tape ribbon and a zippered carry case. The full package includes 6 domes, 6 poles, a 1000’ of tennis tape ribbon, a 60’ roll of 3” roll down boundary lines and a zippered carry case. Rackets and balls are not included - order below. Use the softball sized.
