Youth Programs
DTP is Building Champions for Life. We prioritize creating a fun, positive, and enthusiastic atmosphere. Every day we teach Character Development, Athletic Development and Tennis through a kid first, holistic approach. We subscribe to the USTA’s nationally recognized “ROGY” pathway—Red, Orange, Green, and Yellow ball progression. By using appropriately sized equipment and court dimensions for each age and stage, young players can develop advanced skills more quickly, build confidence, and most importantly, have fun!
