TPS Tennis Academy is a Dubai tennis academy, founded in 2015, that coaches players from age three up to seniors of 50+ across three venues: Al Mutazah Club in Jebel Ali, Al Garhoud and Dubai Hills. Juniors move through ball-colour stages that follow ITF guidance: Red Ball for the youngest players, with a focus on motor skills such as catching, throwing, jumping and ball impact, then Orange, Green and Yellow Ball as serves, rallies and volleys develop. Green and Yellow Ball groups have a maximum of four children per court and run in 10-week terms. Stronger players can move into a High Performance pathway with more court time and physical training. The programme and fee details on the academy's website were last updated in March 2022, so check current groups, times and prices when you enquire. The academy doesn't say which programmes run at which venue, so ask which groups train at Jebel Ali. The Jebel Ali venue is rated 4.9 on Google from 9 reviews.

The activity

Tennis, explained

Tennis coaching for kids builds hand-eye coordination, footwork and racquet skills, usually taught with a colour-coded ball and court system so children progress at a pace that matches their size and ability. Younger beginners start with a slower, bouncier red ball on a mini court, moving through orange and green balls as their skills grow, before playing with a standard yellow ball on a full court. It's a good sport for kids who enjoy one-on-one competition and can be taken up from as young as 3, all the way through to advanced, competitive levels.

Who it's for

Children from age three, through the Red, Orange, Green and Yellow Ball stages, with a High Performance programme for players ready to train and compete seriously; adults up to seniors of 50+ are coached too. The academy page gives two age ranges for the early stages (Red Ball: three to six, and 5-8; Orange Ball: six to eight, and 8-10; Green Ball: 9 to 12, and 9-10; Yellow Ball: 11 and over), so ask which group suits your child.

What to expect

According to the academy's website (last updated 2022), Red Ball sessions use a ball 75% slower than a standard yellow ball on a court of about 11-12m by 5-6m, with rackets up to 23 inches, so children can play from the first lesson. The focus is motor skills such as catching, throwing, jumping and ball impact, with fun, team-based matches. Orange Ball moves to a larger court and adds agility, balance and coordination work; Green Ball is the first step onto a full-size court. Red Ball groups train 2-4 hours a week and Orange to Yellow Ball 4-6 hours. Trial sessions, session times and what to bring aren't published - ask the provider.
