We’re here to welcome a new generation of players and help them usher in the next era of tennis. By working with coaches, schools and parents, and offering them the full support of the USTA, we are ready to break new ground on and off the court.
To the Net Generation, we’re excited to meet you. USTA’s new youth brand, Net Generation, is for kids ages 5-18 and is designed to suit players based on their skill level and developmental readiness. This approach provides coaches the flexibility to modify lessons to better meet the needs of the player and facilitate development, making learning more fun.
We believe in creating a positive and welcoming environment for all youth players. By focusing on play, building character and championing individual challenges, we empower kids to grow and develop at their own pace. It’s all about providing players the opportunity to enjoy tennis on their own terms. Join the Net Generation family and take advantage of the benefits. If you are a provider, get access to our suite of teaching and promotional tools, starter kits with curriculum and Net Generation gear, and event opportunities all for FREE. If you are a parent or player, get access to coaches, programs, Net Generation events, gear and more. Visit Net Generation.com for information about playing, coaching and more!

The Men's UNLV tennis team injected additional excitement into this year's TPC Ladies Spring Luncheon. On Tuesday May 7th, UNLV coach Owen Hambrook and his team put over 40 ladies from TPC and surrounding clubs through their paces. The team, along with TPC tennis pros Mark Swanson and Ken Shioi, put the ladies through 2 hours of challenging drills. It was an opportunity for the ladies to learn new training techniques and enjoy high level tennis skills up close. The event concluded with a gourmet lunch prepared by TPC Executive Chef, Shane. It was the ideal combination of exercise, learning, and socializing and many were already excited for next year's event.

Springtime in Paris was a great way to end the 2013 Women's Weekday League. Over 170 ladies and pros attended the celebration at Canyon Gate Country Club! Kelley Morgan from When Pigs Fly Events and her USTA crew, Mary Maragos, Maureen Caruso, Janay Oakland and the USTA interns transformed Canyon Gate's ballroom into another place and time. As soon as you arrived at the event you were whisked along the streets of Paris to a small cafe where you could take pictures with Andre Agassi's US Open Trophy and the Brian Brothers 2012 Olympic gold medal. As you continued into the reception area you could bid on numerous silent auction items at the Paris Flea Market that were donated by many local businesses. For the brave of hear, you could learn the fate of your future from the fortune teller.
After everyone had a chance to mix and mingle, the doors opened to the grand ballroom where tables were set with beautiful bouquets of flower, vintage umbrellas and a small gift bag personally made by Kelley. Canyon Gate provided a delicious buffet lunch which was followed by a fashion show courtesy of Janice Wilson and Eccoci in Boca Park. Eccoci's latest fashions were modeled by different ladies on the weekday tennis teams. It was great to see the ladies strutting their stuff. It was definitely an event to be remembered.
The ladies (and gents) were all looking fantastic! Check out the photo album above of the day's festivities
