Dear Players and Parents,

Registration is now open for the Rackets Academy Junior Development Programme (JDP)—one of the UAE’s most comprehensive tennis programmes for children aged 3 to 11. The largest Jumior program in the region with over 700 kids.

Designed specifically for young players, the JDP provides a fun, structured environment where children can stay active, build confidence and develop strong tennis foundations from an early age.

Using age-appropriate courts, lower nets, smaller rackets and softer, low-bouncing balls, the programme makes tennis easier and more enjoyable to learn. Players progress through four stages:

• Tots: 3–4 years

• Mini Red: 4–7 years

• Orange: 7–9 years

• Green: 10–11 years

Each session includes 15–30 minutes of tennis-specific movement and fitness exercises, helping players develop the balance, coordination and fundamental footwork required for tennis.

Monthly match-play sessions are also available for the Mini Red, Orange and Green categories. These sessions introduce players to scoring, competition and match situations in a positive and supportive environment.

The programme is led by Head Coach Alana Casey, an LTA Level 1, 2 and 3 qualified coach with a degree in Sports Science and Psychology. Alana manages a team of 12 coaches who specialise in developing players within this age group.

The programme is available across four venues:

Motor City | Al Barsha | Al Waha | Atlantis  | DAA  | Dubai Hills (Indoor)

The Junior Development Programme also provides the first step towards our Elite Programme—the region’s leading pathway for aspiring high-performance and professional tennis players.
