Age-appropriate progression
Red, Orange, Green, Beginner Yellow, and High Performance each have a defined role so families know where to start and how players move forward.
About PlayTennisLV
A junior development program built for the Lehigh Valley.
We expand access to quality junior tennis in Allentown, Bethlehem, and the broader Lehigh Valley — and we keep raising the bar on how the game is taught at every age and level.
Why We Exist
Access matters. So does doing it well.
PlayTennisLV was built to widen the doorway into tennis. That means meeting families where they are, offering age-appropriate entry points, and creating a development path that feels clear instead of confusing.
And development comes before labels. We care about long-term player growth more than hype. Players build the skills, habits, resilience, and confidence needed to compete well and stay connected to the sport.
On the Court
Real development. Real players. The Lehigh Valley's junior tennis program in action at Oakmont Tennis Club.
GreatBase Tennis
Rooted in GreatBase.
PlayTennisLV is grounded in the GreatBase Tennis framework. That means players learn through clear progressions, smart skill-building, and a coaching approach that respects both the age of the player and the demands of long-term development.
GreatBase gives the program a shared language for movement, rallying, spacing, decision-making, and player growth. It helps us stay consistent from Red Ball through older junior training.
“Age-appropriate coaching, structured progressions, and clear standards make it easier for families to trust the process.”
