The Midwest Youth Tennis Team program is the largest tennis program for children 10 years and younger in the Midwest. The program features the QuickStart Tennis play format, which uses age appropriate equipment and courts scaled to the size of the players. The Midwest Youth Tennis Team makes the game more accessible – and more fun – by allowing kids to get involved right from the start.
