What is Junior Team Tennis (JTT)
JTT is a USTA sanctioned program for players desiring match play experience. Everyone on a JTT team gets to play in a match. Players are divided by skill level and age and placed on co-ed teams of 8-10 players. JTT is a combination of practice and match play with an emphasis on skill development, teamwork and friendly competition. The local season consists of matches against other area teams. The JTT season culminates with Sectional Championships. Hastings will have teams at the 12U, 14U and 18U levels. The cost for JTT is $125. All JTT activity is held at the Hastings High School Courts. The following are important JTT dates:
