Development Squads

Counties Tennis Squads are for our top, committed juniors who want to take their tennis a bit more seriously and to a higher level with the goal of aiming to represent Counties in tennis and playing in the Auckland tournaments. 
 
The squads run for 8 weeks each term with 6-8 members in each squad. Squads run are 10&U, 12&U, 14&U, 16&U and 18&U, boys and girls, with the occasional mixed squad as they develop in age and ability.
 
Each player is expected to be a member of a local club and play in the local interclub competition throughout the summer season.
 
Each season Counties reaches out to the local Clubs who are asked to nominate any players from their club who they think are up and coming and would benefit from this programme. These players are then invited to trial with their appropriate age squads and if selected will join the squads or be directed to a local Club’s winter coaching programme.
 
If you have a player or think your child would be committed and interested in joining any of the squads please contact Counties regional coach Lynette Johnston for more information and a trial.
