5D JUNIOR PATHWAY
At 5th Dimension Tennis, every junior has a place within our structured pathway, ensuring players of all starting levels are supported, challenged, and given opportunities to progress.
Starting with Hot Shots and structured beginner match play in lessons, we nurture emerging talent through a clearly defined development journey that ultimately prepares Juniors to compete confidently at every stage in their development.
WHAT IS A UTR?
A UTR Rating (Universal Tennis Rating) is a number that provides a real and accurate measurement of skill level. A player's UTR Rating is a number between 1.00 and 16.50.
The coaching team will match your playing level (UTR) with the most appropriate playing level /team for you in the WDTA pathway.
Don’t have a UTR? No problem! The Coaching Team will assist all new players in getting started in your goal setting and getting started in competitive play.
