JUNIOR PLAYER UPDATES
If you know a Junior who is looking for an opportunity to play in the off-season, check out our LNTA Junior Singles Ladder. Players issue challenges and matches are played around your own schedule. It’s only $25 for the entry fee, so it’s a great value. The season runs Dec 1 – March 1. It’s a “bump” system, so it doesn’t matter how often you’re able to play, in terms of placement. We have orange, green and yellow ball offerings. Don’t forget, there are prizes for the winners and runners-up!
