Level group promotions and and progression
Players are evaluated throughout each session to ensure they are placed with the group best fit for their progression. Keep in mind that players progress at their individual place, and placement and progression may depend not only on skill level but also physical size, strength, and behavioral maturity and fit with a specific group.

Junior Matchplay preparation
For players beginning to learn the rules of the game (Level 2) we provide ‘Playdays’ to offer match guidance and opportunities.
-
Our Playdays are coach-led sessions that enable players to learn more about playing matches
- These sessions cover important elements of real-life match play that are often lost in conventional lesson time: keeping score, making calls, practicing serves / returns, and game strategy
-
Included in lesson fees for the following level groups ONLY: Orange 2, Green 2, Yellow 2

Schedules are 2 or 3 times in a session on Saturdays, 5PM or 6:30PM. Please see the session schedule to find dates for a specific session – registration via CourtReserve booking portal or emailing contact@infinitefuturetennis.com
For more advanced players ready to play in official competition, we organize weekly UTR matches. This provides an opportunity for all of our players to have match experience in a globally verified player rating system.
- UTR Matchplay is a scheduled matchup for players to play in a officially verified match situation with roving umpires
- For competitive Orange and Green ball players, some UTR match days each session will also be organized for Orange and Green ball matches
