The Bentonville Parks and Recreation tennis program is designed for players ages 5 and older, regardless of skill level. The program focuses on tennis fundamentals and skill development, with emphasis on proper form and stroke technique. As tennis professionals, our coaches have exceptional knowledge, talent, and experience. Bentonville Parks and Recreation is pleased to offer a prestigious tennis program to the community.

 All tennis programming takes place on courts in Citizens Park, Memorial Park, and Wildwood Park. Opportunities include Youth Academy, Youth Recreation Tennis and Adult Recreation Tennis in addition to private, semi-private, and group lessons.

Youth Recreation Tennis

This program includes beginner and intermediate players divided into the age groups (6-8) (9-11). This program focuses more on instruction and point play. The program also includes QuickStart Tennis: a fun way for 10U players to learn and progress faster. It uses shorter courts, lower compression balls, and smaller rackets.

Youth Academy

This program is for tournament level players looking for higher-level drills and lessons. These drills put emphasis on advanced technique, commitment, fitness, accountability, and self-discipline. We offer 5 different groups in this program:

Red (ages 5-7) uses 25% compression balls and looks for players to be able to hit 100 consecutive balls and execute topspin.

Orange (ages 8-10) uses 50% compression balls on a 60’ court. Players may move up to Orange Crush by coaches’ decision.

Crush (ages 8-10) 50% compression balls on 60’ court. Look for players to hit 100 consecutive balls from the 60’ baseline and execute topspin.

White (ages 11+) for intermediate tournament players.

Black (ages 11+) for advanced tournament players. (Most often players traveling across the state, south, and/or country for tournaments.
