2026 City Youth Tennis
The City Youth Tennis Program is a pre-competition introduction to tennis program. In these classes your child will learn the basic tennis strokes, tennis rules and etiquette. The class promotes healthy athletic habits, team work and introduction to competition.
When: Classes are offered Monday - Thursdays after school at the times & dates listed. Be sure to look at your MyRec account for class schedules.

If you are trying out tennis, you don’t need a racket. We have a limited number of rackets to loan. If your child has participated in a session or two, we suggest getting them their own racket (marked with a name on it).
Suggested racket sizes:
4-5 years old: 21-23 inch (Sponge Ball, Red Ball)
6-8 years old: 23 inch (Red Ball)
9-12 years old: 25 inch (Orange Ball, Green Ball)
12-17 years old: 26-27 inch (Green Ball, Yellow Ball)
Check-In: All participants must check-in at the front desk before going to court. Please come on the day you picked at registration so we can have the right instructor/child ratio. Always check in.
Class Participation: Our youth classes are affordably priced so make-ups are not available unless we experience an excessive number of rain out days. Missed classes cannot be made up on a different day without instructor approval.
Weather: Indoor courts which are located to the left of the Main Clay Court Building may be used during inclement weather, as available. If no indoor courts are available, you will be notified via text message to the number on your account. Opt in for mobile notifications to ensure you receive Yarbrough Tennis Center communications.
Class Modification: If you need a modification because of a disability to enjoy this program, please complete the ADA modification form on the home page or contact ada@auburnalabama.org.
